Without pictures it is impossible to form an accurate opinion.

Minor Derailment In BNSF Denver Yard
Posted by caldreamer on Thursday, April 28, 2022 6:02 PM

There was a minor accident in the BNSF 31st Denver yard at 09:30 this morning.  The report from the jointlinerailfanning forum stated that five auto racks derailed on an outbound train. All cars were upright.  Sounds like a truck on each car slipped off the rails.  Will BNSF just rerail the cars and send them on their way and worry about any damage latter, which I think they would do.  Or would they pull the cars and inspect the cargo for damage once the cars are rerailed?
