Wife's uncle retired from CSX so he's my guy for all things train related. He used to be an accident investigator and traveled all over to assist with derailments.


EDIT: If I was a train engineer I would have fun with the horn if possible. It's got to be sort of boring sometimes.
Why did he have to assist? I thought trains derailed on their own well enough.
