I tried to get to the accident here in San Antonio this morning and I was told there are a few yes few cars still leaking Hazmat and the main road is closed to the sight (old Pearsal road) from route 410. The report from the UTU member is very complete. but I believe what I was told from a cop that the BNSF train was on the main heading west and the UP train also heading west struck the BNSF train that was clearing in Mc Donnah siding was struck on the rear at high speed (I don't know what this is) and 40 cars and 4 locomotives are involved. I heard the news this morning from John Bromley that they suspect something in the Spring Dispatching center again I dont know what this means but. This is a crying shame that the UP had another bad wreck about a month ago here in San Antonio at tower 112 with 2 locomotives down in the SA river. trains striking other trains in the technical age is impossible........er isn't it?? You can send a man to the moon but you cant stop trains from striking others.....Is human error involved in all of this.??? 5 years ago we had a head on at Devine, Texas on the UP 3 I believe killed I have slides of this one too lap track warrent. I have been in the railroad business 53 years now in engine service both as an Locomotive engineer and Road Foreman of Engines and Transportation Manager so I do know what I see, and it sickins me. I was on WOAI TV news yesterday and they did let me tell it like it is I was suprised at this. <br />Hogger
