…thank goodness there was no accordion effect.

Yeah, we don't want images of Lawrence Welk and Myron Florin bouncing through our heads, do we?

Wonder how the resident wreck expert will spin today’s Amtrak vs. 18 wheeler in Illinois….the engineer must have been asleep of course, and if the train had been equipped with the super smart EPC brakes and load sensors, plus a detector to alert the engineer to the presence of the truck long before it got to the crossing, and if there had been 15 or 20 advance warning signs along the roadway, then of course this one could have been avoided…thank goodness there was no accordion effect.
