That doesn't look like a derailment, looks more like the whole train exploded to me. I sure hope everyone who was in it is okay.

nopes No injuries since the 26 cars that derailed were on the end of the train 
This CLEAN loco was on 4 ex-Rock Island/ex-CNW ballast hoppers 


I should mention there was a witness to the derailment

That's crazy. Especially since the front of the whole train is pretty much pristine.

Man, what the hell happened there? Looks awfully violent for being out in what appears to be the middle of nothing.
