A year or two ago, a simi truck carying lumber was hit dead on by a BNSF freight. The truck driver was killed instantly, and luber splintered evrywhere. The lead unit was a C44-9W, which was badly dented on the front, but the crew was not injured, because most of the impact was low, and the anti-climber stopped lumber from peircing the cab, although it did bend the handrail and the platform was covered with splintered lumber. The units were switched around and the train continued with a different crew a few hours later. <br /> <br />-Brian
