Darren,
This accident occurred back in May 2004. There was at least one fatality. Here’s a link to the story. http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/news/1-05202004-303774.html
All the best to you.

Thankyou for your information. I think I’ll write to BNSF in Fort Worth.I know its a bit late but all my colleagues at my depot wi***o pass on our condolences and we are thinking about the loss of a brother at this time
If I recall right, there was a thread on this at the time. What I remember from my RR guys at work is that one of them ignored his track warrant and kept on going past his authorized limits.
