T64-68 are Camp's photos of the famous bridge disaster on the Central New England (then called the Connecticut Western) at the Farmington River crossing at Tarriffville, CT. Camp took the photos on January 16, 1878, the day after the wreck. This was a trainload of excursionists bound for Hartford to hear Dwight L. Moody, the famous evangelist, speak.  Two engines and three cars were thrown into the river when a span gave way under the load. 13 were killed and 70 injured. Moody actually led a prayer service for the passengers in Hartford. (Thank you to John Hudson for the information).
