A
curious derailment. This happened on Sunday.
The day before (Saturday) I was traveling into town via Harmony Road - the
crossing just north of this derailment. I saw a train heading southeast
so I decided to follow it. Sitting in the car near a crossing close to
this derailment, I watched the train slowly moving (perhaps 10 to 15
MPH) as the cars waggled back and forth on the poor condition track. I
followed that train to east of Windsor where it stopped.
Hearing the news of a derailment, and the location, I could understand
the issue. I stopped out for a few photos...
