A NS freight with 3 locos passed over a tressel that was washing out but 20 cars behind locos derail into creek in Opelika, AL. This is similar to the CSX dropping 2 locos into a creek in NC.. We have had copious amounts of rain around here with flash flood alerts and warnings.
This route is the NS Central of Georgia route from Birmingham - Columbus, GA. Where the washout is in relation to the underpass of CSX AWP sub is unknown.
