On the final accident report
The city government has "Official Report of 1945 Train Wreck", a webpage which is supposed to link to the final report. However, none of those pages are clickable and an ordinary user would not be able to use that page to read the report. However, I was able to get to the full resolution pages by modifying the filenames. For example: https://michigannd.com/vertical/Sites/%7B87BB3D08-45CF-4389-8C2E-764810C2B947%7D/uploads/%7BDD8E32D6-1AF4-47EE-B895-708262250A87%7D_Web.jpg is changed to : https://michigannd.com/vertical/Sites/%7B87BB3D08-45CF-4389-8C2E-764810C2B947%7D/uploads/%7BDD8E32D6-1AF4-47EE-B895-708262250A87%7D.jpg and I get the full page.

In fact this document in sum is "Rear-End Collision - Two Passenger Trains Michigan North, Dakota - August 9, 1945," which is a report from the Great Northern Railway Historical Society. The first several pages are largely written by the society, with some quoting from the Interstate Commerce Commission report and quotes and media from other primary sources.

However the document does contain the ICC report in full: the main text is on pages 7 and 8, while the summary and illustration are on page 6. My opinion is that this re-printing of the ICC report is more readable than the version of the report hosted on ROSAP, but it's good to have the ROSAP document as a reference to know what parts of the historical society are the original report versus other material.

The first five pages of the historical society document: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. WhisperToMe (talk) 04:12, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
