I think it was mentioned in the Train Location threads. The 2 engines & a couple of cars derailed Fri morning. Everything got retailed Monday morning. I believe some track repair was needed, that was supposed to finish today, but I haven't heard whether that's complete.

no news about the derailment north of CP Cedar??.......looked like the two red and white engines dropped off the rail late last week... still had the 6-axle sitting there just north of the E. South St. crossing
Picked a flange just north of diamond. Had nine cars, all empties for CSX. Corman got em upright Monday midday and mow fixed track on Tuesday.

Just north of the shop building in Mason. They left the power on the northbound train when they got back from Jackson.

HVRM announced this morning that they have secured enough funds to purchase the CHS power car, but it has to leave the property by September yet.

This means that the entire CHS dinner train is now officially sold.
