It happens.... i probably should have stopped the train when i started hearing that sound the wheels make when they are rolling on the ties, but i didn't feel like walking over to re couple the BNSF hopper on the left. the boxcar on the right never fell off thankfully.

If you'd have stopped the train we wouldn't have this great train wreck to view.sign1

What were the tank cars carrying? Any toxic chemicals?
