| Remarks: Surreal and gut-wrenching ... almost like it stopped mid-collapse. I have no idea what kept this car from plunging, unless it was still coupled to the car below. |

The water was as high 1 foot above the side sill at the time it washed out, Just to low. This was the main rout for Iowa Northern to get to ADM so they are block here and Waterloo too. |

This is a shame and to bad for the area. This would be a very big hit a class 1 major RR, let alone a local or short line. Good picture and I hope that someday this can be recovered. |

This is a great set of pictures. You always bring a good perspective to your subjects. The situation is clearly presented in the context of the photograph. You’d make a great news beat photographer. I could try taking the same set of pictures and I would not walk away with these shots. |
