Hey Chris, I have a book titled "Railroads Come and Go in Allegan County" and it shows a picture of a PM wreck "near" New Richmond. Not sure of the date...looks like it might be late 1800/early 1900's.
the lastest one that i have is from the 1911 Detroit MI Head on crash at Rougemere Yard , but it was from ebay, ill check the disk out when I get home too see if there's anything I dident see
