[Ragnarok]

A train plunged into the Yellowstone River in Montana after a bridge collapsed on Saturday.

According to reports, fuel spilled into the river.

A large federal emergency response is underway after 8 rail cars plunged into the river when the bridge collapsed.

“I’m monitoring the train derailment in Stillwater County, and the state is standing by to support as Montana Rail Link and county officials assess their needs,” Montana Governor Greg Gianforte said.

Fox News reported:

A train derailment was reported Saturday in Montana near Columbus.
Multiple cars plunged into the Yellowstone River, and the wreck is reportedly leaking fuel into the river, authorities say.
“Currently Stillwater County Emergency Services, Sheriff’s Office, Commissioners, Columbus Fire & Rescue are on scene with Montana Rail Link and other State agencies. Additionally, Stillwater County and Montana Rail Link are coordinating with Federal Response Agencies. We have formally established a unified command and are using the incident command system,” a statement attributed to Stillwater County Disaster and Emergency Services reads.

looks like a main pier failed causing two sections to completely fail. Maybe due to the extreme weather cycles of late, and corners cut during construction way back when?

Those old iron bridges are not designed for the amount of weight these trains are carrying or the speeds at which the travel. I have a cousin who is a train engineer who retired a few months ago, he said it's becoming way to dangerous for trains due to infrastructure issues.

From the look of the river, I predict this is just after flood stage and the bridge inspector has not made his rounds. That pier is WAY out of alignment.

Ooh, just what I always wanted in a river.......... hot asphalt and molten sulfur.

Maybe they (the commies) should pass a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure bill instead of giving the money to Ukraine ( Biden crime family grift machine )! Oh wait??

My Grandpa worked for the railroad for almost 60 years. He must be turning over in his grave at all these accidents. This is just too sad!

Because people were getting the dates tangled up and posting before double checking themselves.

So was this a network attack and not a train failure?

There's a RR trestle not far from us. When we first moved here I was surprised to see the old ACL painted on it - Atlantic Coast Line RR. My father worked for them. He died in 1960. That trestle hasn't even been painted in well over 60 years. No telling what the overall condition of it is! It only sees a train once a month or so now the potential is there.

So apparently I was one of the few that actually went out to google to see if it was indeed a second accident. Well either way sounds like they have a mess on their hands in Montana, and their infrastructure is in dire need of improvements.

Sorry to everyone for the other thread. I was in a hurry to post it and I don't have a good explanation for why I chose the thread from April. Seemed right at the time.

Just talked to a relative who lives near Cody Wyoming. They just got their cell phone working, it had been out since the train wreck (about a day and half). Outage must have been over a large area.

I drove right past it a few years ago. It had a long train that was shaking as it crossed the river on that bridge.

I'm rather surprised it lasted this long.
