Narrative

1906 Loader caught on fire. EE was operating the machine. He thought the flames were actually coming into the cab (they were not) and turned the machine off and bailed out of the cab. He injured his foot/ankle dismounting the machine, but was able to get the fire extinguisher. He did not have to use the extinguisher because the flames went out on their own.
