Bad Night at 16th Street
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, May 5, 2005 7:44 AM
Details not in yet but a Nipsco coal train derailed at 16th Street, St Charles Air Line, in Chicago. All Metra Rock Island suburban trains annulled for the time being. I only saw footage from the Fox Air traffic copter on TV, and Fox's reporting only gave details of alternative commutation services.
