A locomotive entered the wrong tunnel and plunged down a mine shaft, striking the safety detaching hooks mounted on top of the "cage" (elevator for a mine), which are intended… as safety devices designed to release the hoist ropes and prevent the cage from falling back down into shaft in the event of an "overwind" condition.
