Norfolk Southern RoadRailer derailment snarls in Fort Wayne hub
what caused the cars to derail
Piqua Yard crosses Anthony Blvd on a viaduct, and 262 is Eastbound, so they must have been backing around the PIqua Wye from the ex Wabash main. That’s about 150 degrees total.
IIRC, this is not the first time this has happened.
Too bad because I thouroly enjoy watching the roadrailers on the UP near my home in St. Paul mn. At least no one got hurt.
I see a picture of roadrailer equipment but they are not on the ground. Wrong picture?
Backing a train like that is just asking for trouble
