Runaway rail car

[willineus2011]

OUCH!!!

[Cyclist0623]

It hit the head end (engine) of another, parked, train. I wonder if that train was pulled into the position to intercept the car, to stop it.

[SpecialAndNotDumb]

oh myyyyyyyyy goodness ....... lol

[fyadcorp]

Rookie mistake

[danwat1234]

Did you ever hear the noise of the collision? I kept on waiting for it

[SeberHusky]

@danwat1234

If a freewheeling grain car hits a locomotive in the middle of a field, does it make a sound?

[trainmanjosair]

Engineer, Whats the hold-up? Dispatch, we got trouble on the main over. Engineer, Copy that over, what the hell is that? Engineer, what the f&*k! Bail,Bail,Bail!!!

[trainmanjosair]

[2011Maynard]

Once in a lifetime catch - at least we hope so.... Thanks for sharing

[Hiei2k7]

Crumpled that grain car nice didn't it.

[Cg23sailor]

@Hiei2k7 Doesn't take much to crumple a hopper car. Just try unloading one once without venting the top covers... crumples like an empty beer can.

[pdx650]

oops



[arealdoozey]

good catch!

[cavalrytm]

Why was it loaded with the powdered cheese from Mac-N-Cheese?

[fishworldhacker]

@cavalrytm taht was grain

[joseg2143]

Where was this? Jesus Christ this is a once-in-a-lifetime catch!

[buixrule]

@joseg2143 With youtube, nothing is once in a lifetime anymore. Just wait a few weeks!

[SeberHusky]

@buixrule

In this case, it is. Look who else is around the guy...no-fuckin'-body.

[bishfan]

Amazing Catch!!!

[randommagnum]

Man, this video is the catch of a lifetime. You are my hero.

[CSX2665]

lol oh shit wat the fuck?...thats just the result of not applying handbrakes and human error....

[quimbyt]

That was amazing to catch that as it happens.

[TheMrBlinx]

All that distance and he still couldn't manage to keep it centered in the frame.

[pinkq106]

Good joint, ahead for a stretch...... good stretch, conductor in between, conductor clear, set the air.

[jmehl77]

boy o boy, how did you catch that, just amazing, thanks

[webecomets]

Well that looks painful

[Railroader007]

All right give me a good kick, its going to be a long joint...

[MrShadowknight2000]

Wow

[longwhip]

Where did this happen and did you film it?? I cannot find any FRA data on this and would like to know if the train crew was at fault...just curious..

[longwhip]

Hey Conductor man....Did you tie up the handbrakes on that car we spotted at the grainery!?!?! Hope you got run off insurance!!

[Smoovious]

@longwhip

(conductor looks over his shoulder) What car?

[TheProdigy95]

[trainmanjosair]

@TheProdigy95 Nut's would b so mixed up squriells wouldn't find they acorns! Lol

[livinintheleftlane]

[thebeastengineer]

Engineer was probably like, "Shit, no one's goona wanna claim this car."

[steamfandan]

someone tried some fly (loose) shunting and went to fast

[quidproquo2004]

I hope no one was hurt :( Still, an interesting demonstration of the conservation of momentum.

[livecrosswire]

load of time to back that train up and slow down the run away .. 

[TheMrBlinx]

That just made my day!

[madrabidfireman]

Feet dont fail me now!

[metraF40PH163]

[grizzleybearz282004]

[rattacular12]

@grizzleybearz282004 AS a locomotive engineer I can tell you what I would do. RUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!

[grizzleybearz282004]

[EMD645E]

That was one hell of a hit.

[LaochWins]

This HO scale video looks so real!

[juvmol]

very impresive video

[THR33STEP]

At least it is clear of the road.

[smartassstevie]

it was a shipper moving the car with a front end loader and nobody riding the brakes.

read it on railpace magazine

[phil656565]

@smartassstevie from what ive heard there was a derail device on the track that didnt work as well

[shooting4fun]

I want to see the camera view from the locomotive upon impact!

[dogmdmse]

Someone forgot to C102 that freight car!

[shooting4fun]

i am just glad there was no one in the locomotive, could have killed someone.

[decompoza]

LTEX #7488 SD45R got the corn bath - car had run over 8 miles at speeds of up to 60 mph. Employees were chasing it - but this isn't the movies!

[icecardinal]

Got any details?  Where, whose loco, whose car? Thanks!

[TVRM610]

@icecardinal The locomotive used to belong to the Alabama and Tennessee River Railway

[Monicasdestiny]

Thats gunna be an insurance claim!

[dvigna2unl]

We came upon this wreck, and couldn't imagine how it happened - now we know part of the story! How did it break away in the first place is now the question!

[fallingup90]

that's not good for the coupler...

[norfolkwestern10]

ouch!!!

[DioHolyDiver83]

[Frisco1522]

[Jeffwecker81]

[TrainBubba]

[TrainBubba]
