Reply to "CSX Train Wreck at Baltimore Tunnel"

That is the Baltimore Streetcar museum under the bridge.  Their power station took a direct hit and the over head wire was pulled down.  There could be track damage as part of the clean up.  No damage to the rolling stock, car barn and visitors center.  Local reports are the train was 151 cars long.  This is a pretty sharp curve on an upgrade.

Well, there goes their summer and fall program unless they can rebuild the power station or get a temporary power supply going before season opens.  Of course there is rebuilding the overhead  and damaged rails infrastructure to deal with.  Maybe CSX will pay to have a commercial RR contractor come in and repair everything more quickly than volunteers could (one can hope I guess).
