[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by eolafan Lucky seems to be a very appropriate word for this situation, as Amtrak trains routinely do 70 mph per (and seemingly more to the naked eye) on this stretch of Chicago to Denver mainline. I have been to Somonauk on several occassions and can tell you from observation that they could have had a real nightmare on their hands had things gove differently. [/quote] Not to mention that rt. 34 runs about 50 feet south of and along the tracks where that happened. Busy stretch of road+derailing 80mph Amtrak train=ugly mess.
