BN had a big wreck between Essex and Summit MT. There was something like 100 cars of corn over the side and broken open. BN decided to leave it, sine it was "natural." The next spring, the stuff was pretty ripe and the bears were entertaining themselves on the fermenting corn mash. The government informed BN that drunk Grizzleys were no fun at all and made them clean up the mess.
