Date: 07/08/21 20:05 Re: Derailment Marceline MO? Author: MSE And, just after posting the above, at 10:01am a Q train passed the La Plata camera westbound at speed.

It ain't like trackin' storms and tornadoes....I hope! Date: 07/08/21 21:03 Re: Derailment Marceline MO? Author: Spoony81 I rewound the LaPlata railcam and it looks like the train passed it at 19:30. The box car in the pic above looks like one that was towards the front. Other cars ahead of it were loaded steel coils and bulkhead flats with I-Beam.

john Date: 07/09/21 05:02 Re: Derailment Marceline MO? Author: Spoony81 Hearing reports of whatever hazmat is on the train is still on the rails. Might be a good day for the Quincy, IL railcam with the detours

Yeah but you know managment, they never buy into that excuse! Date: 07/09/21 20:05 Re: Derailment Marceline MO? Author: coach More boxcars lost, and maybe some customers, too. Don't RR's inspect their tracks anymore?? With private right-of-ways that they totally control, you'd think RR's would be far safer with far less derailments.
