Posted by Dean Kaplan on April 10, 2006  yikes now that is a bad crash, hope no one was hurt, great shot Dave Posted by Dave Toussaint on April 10, 2006  No injuries relating to the crash. This was the rear of the train. Posted by greg hafften on April 10, 2006  Looks like the pushers were not keeping up to the front power! Posted by Stephen Guthrie on April 11, 2006  Looks like a case of "Stringlining". The DP units might have been heavy dynamics, resulting in the hoppers being pulled into the curve. The question is, was the train heading uphill or downhill? Steve Posted by Dave Toussaint on April 11, 2006  The train was heading down amin #1 because of it's heavy load.
