Some idiot in the tower failed to throw a switch. West bound Broadway Limited went into the siding a 50mph and rear ended a waiting train. :facepalm:  I post this because from this shot it looks pretty real.

Make sure if taken horizontally, that the home button is on the right.
...or you can use your phones editing functions to flip the right way.
or sometimes I use free PC Software called Irfan view.

Do I spy with my little eye four Arnold Rapido retro depressed flatcars with loads?

Looks like the wreck involved four trains.  Impressive!  Oh, you have to lose your job, not to mention there’s the survivor guilt, but impressive.  :D

Where did the Broadway's locomotive go? Vaporized?

looks like the Broadway was being DP'd by some old school steam

Thanks for taking care of that view.     I been running a doubledhead T1 mail train but this time I put the BL behind them.  Love the T1s and two is even better looking.   Yes those are four old Rapido flats. The one i got for Christmas in 1969 at the age of eight. One of my favorite cars along with the Atlas jumbo tanker "Texaco". Since then I have all four versions of that tank car made even though only one was ever built.  The other three Rapido flats I collected within the past five years.    The Broadway has a few jackknifed cars beyond the turn out of camera view.

Impressive spread, but is not a true wreck unless some rolling stock hits the floor.  :D

Judging by the likely death toll, even a desk seems an unlikely assignment any more...
