http://www.sctimes.com/article/20090123 ... 30046/1009 Here's the photos I managed to snag before it got to dark. http://good-times.webshots.com/album/569760348ZXgdDN Word is that everything will be and up and running by 6 AM tomorrow morning. Main one is still in service, but the rail is broken in five(!) places on main two. Also, a Westbound on main one passing the accident site just stopped due to "sparks on a tankcar"... |

Nothing spilled on the ground??? looks like they got lucky with that one. it must be the cold weatherscrewing with the brakes I saw two trains in one nite that the brakes were sticking slightly and the wheels were sparking away as they zipped down the tracks. |

If this happened just another mile or so down track, I would have witnessed this as it happened! (if the St. Cloud Times has the correct time) |
