Re: NS deailment west of Butler

According to the DeKalb County dispatchers, one train has hit a parked train between Waterloo and Butler, Indiana.

They say it happened at U.S. 6 and County Road 47.

NewsChannel 15's Rod Hissong is on the scene; he says there are multiple cars off the tracks.

Derailment Jackson?

Was out around Jackson tonight and saw 4 Hulcher flatbeds and several smaller vehicles by Wolverine Siding they seemed to be working back on the Wye area, not accessible, it looked like some hoppers had derailed back there.

From Jackson Mi. have heard Rockwood yard at Cleveland. CSX at Greenwich Ohio. The best was on a trip to Pennsylvania, around Cleveland we got to hear a UP dispatcher, Matt or Jon might remember where it was from.
