Could be worse. CSX hit a whole herd of them about five years ago in Hilliard, Ohio - which is a Yuppified suburb of Columbus. <br /> <br />A traveling rodeo housed their stock at the Franklin County Fairgrounds about a block away from the ex - NYC Columbus-Ridgeway-Toledo line., about a mile north of CP Darby and two miles north of Mounds ( the crossing of the ex-PRR Columbus-Chicago main ). Apparently the critters managed to get out, and the inbound Chicago-Columbus IM train bowled into a herd of about 50 calves and cattle at 3 AM in the morning. <br /> <br />This is right in the middle of typical suburban housing developments - the last place you'd ever expect to find cows on the ROW. <br /> <br />I'd gladly give a week's pay to have been able to listen to a railroad version of the "cockpit voice recorder" - wouldn't you? :)
