    CSX derailed in Greenville NC, two locos, three tanks, due to tech issues, stopped and looked at it Cranemasters was putting them back on. Some tanks lost really got messed up.

    I am beginning wonder about the sudden rash of derailments.

    It does seem that, whether there's an actual uptick in accidents or just more/better coverage, something's going on. Feeds into a lot of conspiratorial talk around Keystone. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the rash of storms so far has led to some underlying weaknesses (perhaps as far down as the underlying earth). But that's just thinking out loud, as it were.

    Great reporting of the facts. Again they can't get it right. They wrote the same thing twice in the same story. I added the bold.

    Wow,
    CSX is not having a great week in the press. I know derailments are a very common thing, but they normally don't all get this kind of press.

    That's because there is a deliberate theme here.
