Were those cars on a siding? Because otherwise that headline makes exactly zero sense. HOWEVER, when you set cars on a siding, the engine doing that typically has to pass back by them at a slow rate of speed to rejoin the train. IT, moving slowly, would be the most likely moving unit to strike them and that simply doesn't happen. There are three men on the lead end of the train and EVERYBODY is paying attention cause EVERYBODY wants to see Mama and the kids again.

Since the cars are left in the siding with their brakes set in an emergency application, unless the brakes were bled off deliberately and manually, those cars in the siding "ain't going nowhere, Jack."

I spent 11 years rolling up and down the mainline from Elkhart to Toledo to Detroit, Jackson and Bay City and I'm well past certain of my facts.

IF this headline is accurate, this calls for a dig. But first … is the headline accurate?
