What a crazy thing to have happened. I hope no one working on the train was injured in the derailment.
We just have idiots who think they can beat the train and get smushed trying to do so while crossing the track when the crossing lights and bells are sounding. Thinning the herd.
We never heard anything about injuries so I guess there was nothing more than some bruises. The train must not have been going too fast since only the four cars derailed. There was a derailment between here and Tullahoma 5 years ago and several cars derailed.
It’s been a long time since we’ve had an idiot trying to beat a train at a crossing, fortunately, but it’s happened here.
