Why was he stealing those? Doubt if they were worth much as scrap.
The fact he died while getting away with his worthless stash is priceless.

The Explorer overturned and Wilkins was ejected, he said. Plates were scattered over the area.
Sounds like Wilkins was also scattered over the area.

A lot of scrap yards will not accept anything railroad related.

Yep, Tarris Lamont died in the commission of a crime of worthless scrap. What’s up with that? Was it worth it?

Hmm. Soo, if you’re going to overload your Exploder with 2000 pounds of stolen railway plate...
Wear a seat belt.

You'd be surprised how much time and effort these guys put into procuring scrap. They'd be better off finding a job that pays 12 bucks an hour.........

I just took in 800# of scrap steel and only got $23 for it... not even worth the time it took loading it really, but better than paying to get rid of it. His 2000# would have barely been $50 IF the scrap guy took all his stolen steel... They know to keep an eye out for city property like water main and man hole covers... I would assume railroad steel is on their list too.

Working for a railroad, I see piles of those tie plates all the time. They make an enticing target for scrap metal thieves. I think that the scrap yards classify them as “short steel” which sells for a better price per pound.
Unscrupulous scrap dealers could care less where the material comes from. As long as the cops don’t show up and know what they’re looking for, they’ll buy metal from anyone. It all goes into the furnaces in china anyways.

maybe worth $150.00 as scrap on the open market.
assuming the absence of death and dismemberment, not much profit after fuel costs to haul to nearest no-questions-asked “recycling” center.
