That is very lucky indeed, it’s good to hear no one was hurt. That easily could have been very bad.

I drove by there at 2. I noticed the road closed, but I didn’t bother to look down it. That could have been much worse!:jawdrop:

My dad quit his job at CSX this Summer because stuff like this happened all of the time. He had a few close calls and it freaked him out way too much.

> No kidding. I left for work this morning around 8:45. Took the 90 as I’m a stone’s throw from the William St entrance. That would have been an interesting wake-up call if I had stuck to surface streets though.

I live that close to the entrance too, lol. How wierd is that? I heard that this happened on the radio after I was already at work…pretty crazy

KINDA WEIRD Two trains derail on the same day, Both on a bridge, Both derailed Over the bridge onto the roadway. Setup? or just one of them days?

My mother was saying that this was the second time in a month that a train near that Union overpass has derailed. And now this new one near William and Dingens. That seems a little strange.
