Dana Grandinetti's reflection
John, I did some research on these photos and I analyzed it as well. This is what I came up with.....Let me know what you think please. Thanks! Photograph 1
 * At 9:40 P.M. on October 5, 1909, two trains met head-on as they rounded a sharp curve near Farmer City, Illinois.
 * At least one passenger was killed and several were injured.
 * One train, the state fair special, was taking home hundreds of people from the state fair in Springfield, Illinois.
 * The other train was a regular passenger train traveling between Chicago and Clinton, Illinois.
 * This photograph shows the work crew removing the wreck from the tracks.
 * The large crowd in the background probably consists of train passengers who were stranded by the wreck.

[] The above site is very informative.

Photograph 2
 * Cleanup crew and onlookers surround wreckage.

Dana Here is another website that I found information on the wreck. http://dewitt.ilgenweb.net/railroad-accidents.htm#farmer_city_train_accident___1909

I added more to the forms you started. Check the additions and let me know what you think. John John, I think we are ready to turn our stuff in, do you? Dana

Chris, Our final worksheets are the "revised" sheets. Thanks! It was interesting to watch how your forms have developed over the last week. The photos provide insight into what may have happened. However, the photos are not enough so questions are posed, which requires some personal insight being drawn on prior knowledge. Then some research has to be done to develop answers to the questions posed. You found two great sources of information in answering your questions about these two photos and discovered what really went on. Good work. Your collaboration was complete, fast, and effective. Chris.
