Sometimes, only a photograph is adequate.
NEXT TIME DON’T THROW THE SWITCH UNDER THE MOVING TRAIN!!!
Yipes! Don’t know what really caused it, but that is bad. At least there does not appear to be any hazardous lading in that derailment.
Thanks for the photo,

Must not have had proper guard rails on the bridge
Never mind about the rules forbidding the discussion of politics and religion on this forum certain people do not observe.
I thought there was a rule about bad language here as well.
How about taking that image down before young children see it and think all of us old phfarts use such offensive language in public? I certainly do not and am offended by it.
Tsk tsk, Steve
Shucks looks like I missed something as the subject was gone before I came upon this… As usual, day late and most assuredly dollar short.
TOF out in the middle of the Pacific… Water water everywhere and salty.
Steve prolly didn’t see the F word before he hit the post button.
Steve, allya had to do was crop the pick without the caption…
Sure John, sure!
And my mother was a paratrooper in the Swiss Marines! :lol: :lol:
Damn, I missed something good.
Whatever it was, it involved a derailment. So… here’s an amazing video of a derailment that happened right in front of some railfans:

I don’t think there’s anything objectionable in this video, unless you object to trains leaving the rails.
The video could use a little editing though… the derailment doesn’t begin until about halfway through.
I believe it was Jon Miller who claimed that CSX really stood for “Crash, Spill, & Explode.” I think that was after a tunnel fire in Richmond, VA that happened after a CSX derailment inside the tunnel. Anyway, thanks for the video Ray.

Their lucky they didn’t break that power line pole or got those lines slapping together… They knocked the push brace off.

Your mother was a paratrooper in the Swiss marines?
That explains a lot.
