http://truck.speedsociety.com/railway-train-derailment-and-train-collision-is-scary/?source=td  Scary stuff here we never had one go into a uncommanded emergency we hit a pick up truck back in the 70s and were put into emergency. Its pretty eerie to know you have a problem behind you and not know what it is I'm really surprised the grain train engineer didn't give the crude train engineer the heads up sooner though.

That happened  2 miles from my house! It was on the edge of Casselton, ND about 1/4 mile from where my kids were at daycare, lucky nobody was hurt.

Now you just got a drivers side view of how it happened.

....the train that derailed could have called out that something had happend and approaching traffic should slow...

I thought that too, he was on the main so he know the crude train was approaching and should have given him a heads up when his train went into emergency.
