No report yet but in East NY Yard, it's not hard to imagine the cause.

I'm not privy to any about this incident but on first peek, one might expect either a rail condition or hand thrown switch involvement. Again, I have heard nothing confirmed as yet

It was a move that I was apart of, but I was on the other train, waiting for that one to leave first, and then someone came and asked me if I had the problem, and I knew it must have been the other train (Which I could still see the back of, and I thought he was just waiting for the lineup).
I don't know how much I'm supposed to say, but with the yard closed for the day, I got to watch them rerail it, which took over 5 hours. (I always wondered how they did that).

Nah, on this one I cannot blame 'em, as they were running (or terrorizing, depends on what one chooses to refer) elsewhere safe from any mischief in ENYY. Much as I'd love to, I'll cut 'em a brake (oops!!!)....err, break, tonight!!! :-D

Nothing. They'll probably just dip into the spare R-160A fleet, or dedicate more R-143s to the (L) to make it happen.
