Reading, Kansas, SW from Topeka, is the location the location. First report is that the Amtrak locomotive was significantly damaged but no passengers hurt, Several cattle were killed. #4 was running late and was likely not expected at this time of day, (aprox. 8:30 AM.).

Fresh beef for the diner!

Never too old to have a happy childhood!
