Thats a shame...I just saw 9801 a few months ago it was in The CSX Pittsburgh yard.

Nice photo & good location for it. I see the "live" trucks from the TV stations are already there. Good work.

This is very sad to see this happen with the BNSF 143! I was onboard her when the BNSF had the 143 on display during LaCrosse Railfair and was onboard. The engineer was friendly enough and I even was able to blow the horn that day and control the bell. Hopefully they don't retire her after this derailment.

Nice capture to a sad event, considering this was a deliberately caused derailment
|
I hope that isn't the end of another executive unit...
|
Ouch, that must have made a pretty good thud!

August 2005 was the first time i saw a GP60M in Minot ND 143 was the unit i have the picture i took of her up on my wall. She is my favourite unit because i love the GP60M. Sure hope she gets fixed up and back on the rails.
|
Oh, poor locomotives... I hope they are still used after this.
|
This is a shame, to see that some folks here have 'ties' with these locos. I sure hope I don't see a photo of CSXT 6882 lying on its side!
