Then Erika covers the City of San Francisco train derailment.  On August 12, 1939, the City of San Francisco train derailed in Nevada killing 24 and injuring 121. The derailment was caused by sabotage of the tracks that appeared to have been done intentionally. Who was responsible for sabotaging the tracks remains a mystery to this day.
