Mr. Dicenso: Wouldn’t it be fun to ask that of James Squires and his VP Operations?
NS is getting really good at dumping them regularly. Is that part of PSR?
Almost looks like a wreck on my HO layout. With the lighting and the grass in the field (looks like carpeting ) looks like it could be a model. But they saved a few bucks. They missed the fire hydrant
Not sure exactly what happened, but this is clearly more than just a few cars who jumped the track. jackknifed, on the side, etc. What a mess!
