Bob,
Could this be the boiler explosion that happened near Wytheville in 1955?  I have a copy of that report and will be putting elements of it on the Rural Retreat Depot Facebook page soon.

I tried to find a reference to this in SS&S, but didn't come up with anything during a couple-of-minutes scan.  Do you have the page number handy?
