Certainly seems UP derailments have gone up considerably.... not so much BNSF from what I read anyway. Date: 08/23/20 07:24 Re: another UP train on the ground Author: ts1457 skyview Wrote:

Disasters come in three's. That probably is not correct, but we tend to group them that way. I hope UP can go a long time without another big one, but with big-ass PSR trains, who knows?

Question is where will the third on happen? They always seem to happen in threes. Robert Posted from iPhone Date: 08/23/20 09:26 Re: another UP train on the ground Author: mapboy koloradokid Wrote:

They > always seem to happen in threes. > Robert A guy on Virtual Ralifan chat room said, "2CBTWL Coal Black Thunder, WY to West Labadie, MO with the CNRFK Coal Black Thunder South, WY to Kansas City, MO (KCS) this train derailed early this morning at Lewellwen, NE when PTC blacked out” Also, "...6 knuckles broke between the midtrains and the headend when the train slid back together 2 cars went on the ground” Lewellen is between North Platte and Northport/Bridgeport on the mostly coal South Morrill Sub. I heard as of 0935, no through freights past the Laramie camera, but now the camera is off YouTube and back to pay only. mapboy Date: 08/23/20 09:43 Re: another UP train on the ground Author: memphisfreight Looks like at least one track might be open according to North Platte ATCS.
