Another one bites the dust!
Never too old to have a happy childhood!
Looks like the lead engine was 57
At least it was not a full load of autos,that remaining car will be totaled out.
The Land of Enchantment is not Flyover country!
There's work on 9W right nearby tying up traffic with only one lane open. I'm sure that was a factor.
No, the only factor involved was the driver ignored the grade crossing signals.
