Madison County citizens view a 1907 Sunday morning train wreck a quarter of a mile north of the town of Johnson. A rain-weakened roadbed was the cause of the derailment of all cars but the engine. Steaming on to Fayetteville (Washington County), the engine soon returned with a passenger coach to transport the injured back to Fayetteville for medical attention. There were no fatalities.
