BNSF crash near Yuma
Posted by switch7frg on Thursday, May 12, 2011 10:42 AM

BNSF is having a bad day, the border patroljust lost two agents due to a  train strike early near Yuma, Az. The newsies are still trying to get details at 7:40mst. Thoughts are with the engineer and crew as well as the families of the agents.

It was UP. BNSF doesn't go within 250 miles of Yuma.

 Embarrassed  My apoligy hopefully will be accepted for the grievious blunder . The wrong  railroad was stated

   Sometimes I wonder about the  news writers and their  facts. At 6 ;00am those folks are not  too sharp.
