Why is this trash in the "NS" "folder"?

There has never been a derailment on

America's Railroad - The Thoroughbred® of Transportation.

 They've been stacking them up all over lately, Snippy.  NE, Attica, somewhere west of Hannibal, MO, on the Springfield District, it goes on and on.  

Here's an aerial view, sorry, Snippy, it's a TV station: https://www.10tv.com/article/train-derailment-spills-shipping-containers-northern-ohio

It was here, when Cy worked over there in the caveman days, that was single track and a crossbuck crossing, as many were then:

That crossing or the one behind was where we had to change a wheel out. It was me and a Bellevue standing there in the middle of the night when all the RJ Corman trucks showed up and the foreman jumps out and looks at us and asks "whose in charge?" and we both just look at each other like eeerrr ahhh. I just separated the train and asked for super 3 step, and they commenced to doing their thing, then the relief showed up. I was happy to be in a cab away from all that. Never did see a TM or a RFE. I remember the track guy being pissed that we bounced the car up to that crossing at walking speed.
