Overturned Trap—A horse belonging to Mr. W. James, butcher, Rushden, were standing outside the Station on Monday whilst Mr. James was unloading meat from the 6.11p.m. train, and as the engine started off, the horse took fright and bolted down the station yard towards High-street, it was unable to make the turn at the bottom, owing to the great speed, and horse and trap overturned completely in the roadway. Ex-P.S. Beale, passing at the time, ran and held the horse down until Mr. James and others released it from the trap, the wheels of which were broken off. Fortunately the animal was not greatly injured. When the horse and cart overturned the effect use an eyewitness's phrase—was "like a play of fireworks," because of the sparks caused by the impact.
