Derailments on soft or uneven track. How come?

The place where noticed it the most was at a local bridge, right where the track transitions onto the bridge. <br /> <br />If you looked at the track up close, you really couldn't see anything unusual, but if you were 1/8 mile down the track you could see a slight dip in one rail just before the bridge. <br /> <br />And, especially the hi cube box cars would get to rocking, as they passed from low spot to bridge. <br /> <br />After they re did all the ballast, the problem seemed to go away.
