Uh oh, they'll be hauling you in for a statement for sure. That's why you should always tie on hand brakes and do a push-pull test before cutting off, LOL.

"The first Dash 9 in orbit.", "I see you've mastered railroad aeronautics."... great stuff! Those locos go to notch eleven (ah..Spinal Tap) to do that much damage?

My opinion, the derailments in all simulation games so far aren't that realistic, especially with Trainz. Hopefully the new Train Simulator will have more enhanced derailments.

Oh the insanity!

True, but remember, the games were not designed to derail trains...they're for running em'.
