Setout gone wrong. Northbound train had a car derail at the south switch Soda Creek and hit cars in the siding.

Very interesting photos . . . am curious . . . what would have collided with #575 in first photo that would have done so much damage to the body but didn't seem to even bend the frame(?)

Can't recall all the units involved, 575 & 581 for sure, happened at Prince George May 1979. The 575 was ultimately retired account the severe damage. The 575 perhaps was a trailing unit and got punched from both ends, the damage and physics in railway accidents can do odd and unusual things. Doug
