BNSF Derailment at az/nm stateline
Permalink  
 


Empty coal train derails about 50 cars on the BNSF super-

freeway. I rode the AMTK Southwest Chief from KC to

LA in April of 1984. I remember how fast the train was

going and it was dark out. The whole  night was

at 90mph. Ride was smooth at 90mph. I was awake

for most that 90mph ride through NM/AZ desert.

It was the ride of my life on a passenger train.

So back to current news and a big mess and disruption

to the BNSF CHI-LA mainline. Interesting that some

suggest this line cant be maintained to ATSF standards

with twice or thrice the traffic today. Drain Orders has

the latest on the story.
