Looks like they have had a run of bad luck lately. Found this article about an automobile damaging their depot (museum) http://akronrrclub.wordpress.com/2014/05/21/orrville-depot-damaged-in-car-crash/ and this about some of their cars derailing during an excursion. https://akronrrclub.wordpress.com/tag/orrville-railroad-heritage-society/
