Here is a Video of the derailment.............. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlQulZt1_A4

It was my understanding, the H&E owns the trackage up to Wheeler Rd. Any trackage north of Wheeler Rd is LSRC trackage. Would that be correct ??

Any information as to the cause ??

talk about inconveniencing thousands of people for a stupid paint job.

The people can thank the Thugs, that painted the graffiti, that caused the eye sore.

It is MSN, the More crap Network. What does one expect ??

Went to the site this morning with NO problem.

some people post useless junk and lousy photos.

NSS332:

Your first mistake was using the Diesel Shop as your only resource. I've found lots of mistakes on that site.

Pray tell, according to YOU, what is an accurate site ????

I looked at the Diesel Shop for LSRC locomotive roster, and there are NO SD-60's listed.

I heard on Facepuke is was going 150mph.... ROTF..LMAO

It's brand new rail, started laying just south of Twining and went south from there. Also, some 136# was laid through Mt Morris, off the same train.

Thanks for the information and update.

WOW, again ---

Now it's time to respond to your response to your post to prove how out of touch with reality some of your ideas are.

AMEN !!

The unfortunate situation now is, the Activist Media is now on the looking for every derailment in their attempt to run a narrative.

I watch a lot of European Railroad videos, especially the DB in Germany. The Railroading in that region is starkly different than here in the States. One of the things I have noticed is, "generally speaking", most of the freight traffic is hauled using one (maybe two) locomotives, with train lengths...

Nothing personal with this comment, but I think this is the absolutely dumbest thing I have read in a long time. Even if the FRA were to try shutting down NS, there would be so much pushback from so many people in so many high places it would never happen. One of the biggest threats facing this cou...

In my opinion, the FRA needs to shut NS' operations down until they can make new safety practices that the FRA can agree upon, and if the regulator doesn't like it, nothing moves on that railroad until the regulator is satisfied.

WOW......

I've heard that employees are afraid that if they stop their train for any reason other than for a red light, they're gonna be fired because all the railroad

Perhaps that is a "wild a$$ rumor".

It is my understanding, that DD are placed every 20-30 miles. That on the surface, seems to be adequate. But no matter what guideline, rule, regulation, or policy one develops, NOTHING is 100% fool proof.
