I have been a train nut for over 50 years and in the last year to me there has been more derailments. I think I have heard more derailments in one year then in 50 years

Yes it was a BNSF train. i went over to take a look today after work, when i was there 3 cars were still derailed. Dont know how it happened, but at 1:00p when the Metras started rolling across the junction. BNSF pulled the end of the train, 5 cars, back west towards to yard. By the way, while i was in that area i catch a northbound Amtrak with 3 Sounder commuter car heading into Union Station.
