Investigation Summary
At 4:10 p.m. on August 2, 2001, Employee #1, a metal shear operator, was crushed by the grapple of the locomotive crane when he was attempting to clear a blockage in the throat of the charge box to the Harris metal shear. The shear was not in operation during the time Employee #1 was trying to clear the jam. After Employee #1 did not show up to pick up his paycheck, other employees returned to the shear area to search for him. Employee #1 was found in the bed of the charge box of the metal shear, adjacent to the throat of the shear, where he was asphyxiated due to head trauma and crushing.
