"we just hit the ground hard!" 7 a.m. Yard Job Derails

As the yard job came back light into Glenwood Yard from downtown, he derailed but remained upright. Unfortunately, 349 was stuck since he had yet to leave.

@MachintoshCJ Thats what you say when you derail Dumbass

EXACTLY! I SPENT 30 YEARS OUT THERE ON NS. IF YOU KNEW WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT. THE APPEARANCE OF THE RAILS IN THIS VID ARE GIVING PEOPLE THE SAME IMPRESSION THAT DRIVERS GET WHO ATTEMPT TO CROSS IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING TRAIN WHEN THERE ACTUALLY IS NO ROOM/TIME TO CROSS. YOU CAN SIT BEHIND A KEYBOARD AND CALL PEOPLE NAMES? FINE. I'LL MATCH WITS WITH YOU ANYDAY ON RAILROAD KNOWLEDGE SINCE I *LIVED* IT EVERYDAY SINCE 1978!~

There was a derailment yesterday in Bulls Gap,TN, where an empty coal train was making a turn toward Andover Va from Bristol and the locos went off the track. They got it cleaned up last night.

Man what are the odds of that happening when railfanning? Well the good thing is that everyone is okay that's the most important thing. :)

@JerryNSretired What did you do for NS?

[Supdude180]

I think he went to fast and bounced off.

[njcurmudgeon]

Nice catch. I was wondering if Norfolk Southern used your video to help their investigation of what went wrong?

I love how someone has to get out and say "Yep we derailed"

[Jemalacane]

Why the fuck did they derail the train? Hahahahaha! :D
