Amazing the design of these newer generation of locomotives, they seem to be able to withstand frontal collisions better then their predecessors. Other then the debris from the Wal-Mart truck...the SD 70 appears to be fairly intact.

Looks like window on the conductor's side is punched in, you can see the debris goes through and out the side window. I imagine it is "Hit the Brakes and Hit the Floor" when you see box truck pull out in front of you...

This is the main reason why the norfolk & western ran long hood forward.
70 mph. That's scary.

Even when it's a tie, the Train always wins.

That would make a nice cover for a book, "When Mr.Walton met Uncle Pete."

This is reason number 642 why I don't shop at Wal-Mart.
