Yesterday northbound Coast starlight hit a tree in southern Oregon. In strange series of happenings hitting the tree apparently caused a mudslide which then derailed the baggage car. UP sent a loco to pull cars back to a location to board passengers on several bus. If a freight had hit tree one has to wonder depending on car type ??
