Two trains crashed on the city's South Side late Friday morning, leaving an Amtrak locomotive lying on top of a freight car. The Amtrak cars did not derail, but the locomotive of the Amtrak train was severely damaged at 48th Street and Shields Avenue. Information about injuries and other details were not immediately available.

I hope that the results are as positive as this terrific movie. Always had a crush on Jill Clayburg.

Okay, I am spooked. I had a very vivid dream last night about a train crash...so vivid I had trouble getting back to sleep!

Sorry, but this story isn’t important.
Now the hostage siege at Hillary’s campaign HQ in NH IS important enough to be covered wall to wall on FNC.

Oh dear. Let’s pray for a minimum of injuries and/or casualties. My husband takes a Chicago-area METRA commuter train every day, and my heart stops every time I hear of a train incident on these tracks around here.
