It's Friday and I'm bored
Crazy! A train derailed just up the street here a few years ago and after they cleared the tracks they just left the cars there. I guess it was too expensive / too much trouble to remove them so they just left them there...kind of eerie

pretty crazy. the physics of how those things even stay on the tracks always amazes me to begin with.

i've heard of that...the time/effort/equipment to get a rail crane out there just isn't worth the scrap sometimes, especially on a busy line

Is driving a train harder than I think it is?

In other news, this guy was not charged for doing 106 in a 50 in his train, killing 8 and injuring 200

If I were doing 106 in a 50 in a car and did that much damage, I would be in jail for a long time, no establishing intent required. I guess I'll keep that "sorry officer, I lost situational awareness" argument in my back pocket. :dunno:

I love that video because I drive a Tacoma and Miata, so that might as well be my front yard.

I know im not the only one who used to create spectacular crash sequences using lego cars and hotwheels....

This is oddly very satisfying to watch.
