Dang, it even collected one of those BNSF orange racks. Hope the cars were empty.

Great Shot! Glad my car wasn't the one crushed!

Wow I sure hope the number of injuries stays at zero and those cars crumpled like Beer cans.

I'm going to guess "Picked Switch"

Lets just hope that there all anything but Chevrolets and GMCs.

Thanks to Dustin the Altoona area rail fan for posting this image.

Unfortunately, all the derailed autoracks were loaded with Chevy and GMC products. What a mess!

The train was loaded with Chevy & Honda's from my photos of the wreck, FRA Wont investigate it because its not to their list of requirements BUT NS has till the end of October to investigate and send in a report of this derailment. Id guess a wheel hit the switch and then a domino effect of cars landing on the ground (shown here). Only 1 car not on the train was damaged & a part of 10th Ave. No one was hurt.
