Train Wreck at the Train Show

BNSF tangling with Amtrak right in front of the main train terminal. If you look closely you can see the flashing end of train device still blinking under the SP unit.

was that set up or did that really happen but u didn't happen to catch it on tape?

[squirrelkinns]

@crazytaxi1000 I did not see it happen but two MT freight cars made it to the floor makes for an expensive set-up. So it was an honest screw-up and I just had to document it.

How hard did the trains collide for that Southern Pacific to wind up on top of another freight car

[squirrelkinns]

@BNSFfan9959 With two BNSF units pushing behind it and a derailed AMTRAK Genisis for a ramp it really had no difficulty getting there.

Was that staged?

[squirrelkinns]

@alexajo89 With two MT freight cars on the floor I'd say no. The end results were just to good not to document.

[squirrelkinns]

@THEMaverickLucky7 The "N-Trak Safety Board" investigated and found both parties involved were at fault.

"I told you once, I told you a thousand times, "DON'T LET THAT AADAMS GUY IN HERE!"

[BNSFfan9959]

@squirrelkinns yeah, that's true

[hobbeekid]

@THEMaverickLucky7 It should be the NMTSB.....

[kmothersil]

OOPS! 

[legotrainzman]

They should have one "crash" at some train shows with firemens, firetrucks, ambulances etc.
