Excursion Train Derailed
The Norfolk Southern Excursion train which carried a number of excursionists from this city to Virginia Beach for a day's outing Wednesday, was partly derailed on the Virginia Beach extension of the road upon its return last night, without loss of life, and the returning excursion crowd was delayed about three hours in arriving here. The train reached this city at 1 o'clock Thursday morning. The cause of the derailment couldnot be learned here Thursday morning.
