There are some narrow gauge accidents:

Southern Pacific in 1915 a couple of miles south of Tonopah Jct. This is the one I mention in my post.

Nevada-California-Oregon in 1915.

And here are a couple on the C&S:

C&S near Boreas 01/21/1936

C&S near Kenosha 07/25/1936 This is the roll-over of the 346.

And then there is the one from the CB&Q Black Hills operation:

CB&Q near Whitetail Summit, S.D. 12/30/1927 . This is the wreck of 537.
