Not my picture.
Don't think this is what people mean when they say "rolling coal"
No injuries resulted when a CSX coal train derailed after striking a rockslide in the Harlan County community Wallins Creek, Ky. Two locomotives and eight cars derailed. WYMT-TV quotes CSX spokeswoman Cindy Schild as saying the derailment occurred about 2:09 a.m., and no leaks or spills into waterways occurred. A state transportation department spokesman said the adjacent State Route 2007 is expected to be closed for nearly a month as the rockslide is cleared. No word if anyone was in the house that was narrowly missed by the derailment.
Tough situation there for sure
Well, at least it was near a road, so accessing it would be easy.
Bad situation, to be sure, and quite an experience for those homeowners. Wonder if they were allowed to stay there during the recovery?
