2 hurt in a collision between a car and freight train near 54th and Long...not sure what RR.
Seems like an awful lot of these in the past couple years, maybe supports my theory that people are getting dumber!

That's the line that goes around back of Midway and Clearing Yard - it's a big terminal yard and you need multiple ways in/out.
