Grab a rock, have a seat, and talk about the real world of trains.

I got a few pics of the wreck site from the car...I really couldn't bear to take any more. There are piles of scrap metal everywhere, and a good number of destroyed autoracks waiting for the torch. Two burned out loco hulks can be seen from the highway. *!sad!* I did not take any pictures of that, out of respect for the men who died.
