Dave, if they plan to scrap the 401, I wonder why they went to the trouble to blue-tarp it?

As say in the new 15 Years logo in french:(L'Aventure se poursuit) The adventure continues. More and more derailement......
Anyway! It an other way to scrap all the SD40's

The new said that injuries occurred in this accident. It would be common to tarp any areas where crews were injured...

DMIR 401 was the trailing unit, so no crew would of been in it at the time of the accident.

Fortunately no one was in the 401 as it was a trailing engine. The cab was crushed by an empty ore car that was launched into it upon impacted. The tarp is either there to preserve the cab condition during the on-going NTSB investigation or act as a deterrence to keep people out.
