Minor UP derailment
Working in Melrose Park, IL this week. Was sitting in traffic on the Mannheim Rd overpass over Proviso Yard at about 5 pm Central and noticed there was a derailment being worked on in the yard below. UP 3594 was pulling a short string of 6 or 7 covered hoppers (not sure if grain or something else) eastbound, just west of the overpass, and about 2 or 3 of them were jack-knifing. Didn't seem to be attacting a lot of attention.
