<Sigh> The paperwork on this is going to be a bear!

No loss of lading, tracks available to run around, looks like a quick re-rail. They may just cut off from all the cars ahead, then, if all goes well with the re-rail, not even do any paper work. Now if that covered hopper had overturned, it would be a far different story.

I'm not sure that covered hopper still has a truck under this end of it; a bit more work.

Do you have more info on this? IIRC this was one of CNW's last derailments before the UP takeover.

All I can tell you is that there were actually two derailments. First, the CNW one, then a rail rolled over under the Santa Fe units as they passed on a little-used track.

Sure wasn't the best place in the area to put one on the ground for sure!
