I saw some pictures on the news last evening. I assume this happened as the train was traveling from the southbound tracks to the eastbound tracks, by the rail park?
They said there were over 230 cars with 5 locomotives pulling. That was quite a train for this part of the country.

train was westbound using the northeast transfer to run north on the former C&O .cars ended up east-northeast of former F tower across the tracks from the park....
