A coal train derailed this afternoon.  Several cars left the tracks
and spilled several tons of coal on the ground.

Given what could have happened this wasn't bad.  Had they traveled a
few feet further down the tracks the cars and cargo would have dropped
onto passing traffic.

Had they rolled down the hill they would have caused serious damage to
the car dealership at the bottom of the hill.

News reports said there were no injuries, so the damage amounts to a
very expensive cleanup.

A couple of photos:

The pano was stitched from eight smaller shots.  Just did a quick
Photoshop CS3 Photomerge in automatic mode and a crop.  Not bad for
very little effort.

Shot with the K10D and the DA 50-200.

See you later, gs
