Train derailment near Arlington City Hall

[Tyrone Biggums]

I recently got a ticket in Arlington for running a stop sign(California stop)- ticket fine is $236 when I looked it up online train derailment was only $296. I should have got more bang for my buck

Damn, dude. Luck has been a bitch to you lately.

I'm on a 3 day weekend.

You suck.

A pit bull must have ran across the track to cause that accident.

Fort Worth Star Telegram is now reporting it attacked the train and pulled it off the tracks.

Wonder what caused it? How the heck does a train come off the tracks like that? I can see sharp turns and excessive speed but...

Damnit, I has some pennies on the track I wanted to flatten out, sorry!

Umm... broken rail, broken wheel, car runs in the side of the train, dragging equipment, bad train makeup, exessive dynamic braking... the list goes on and on

I'm gonna bet everything from Collins to Cooper will be blocked whether there are cars on the tracks or not. Possibly even farther out. Good luck getting home. It's going to be a fucking mess.

Looking at the video on Fox, the car that is parked across the tracks is directly behind the building next to AMS.

Wow. That's right behind Arlington Machine shop. I just called Eddie. No answer.

Damn. I'll have to ask him about it the next time he is in my store. I don't ever remember anything like this happening in Arlington before. Wonder what crossings are blocked due to it.
