Randy Curlin General The trucks of UP 6903 are visible in the upper right corner. Lots of Western Pacific rolling stock was involved in the derailment 11/11/2021 5:49:41 AM
Tim Darnell General Looks nasty. 11/12/2021 9:49:32 AM
Scott Crotwell General Wow! Looks like a nasty derailment. 11/12/2021 10:03:46 AM
Clark Gillis General Great find Randy! I think the UP freight rear ended a stopped Santa Fe train just above Sullivan's Curve. This might be the only shot of 6903 on RR achieves. Never heard if any RR people were hurt or killed, looks pretty bad. 12/17/2021 6:32:52 PM
