At 6:05 CST a bridge over the mighty Mississippi river collapsed sending cars into the water and collapsing onto a rail ine crushing train cars also--go to CNN.com for video. Reminded of the scene in the movie " The Mothman Prophecies" which is based on actual events of The Silver Bridge Collapse in the 60's on the WEST VRIGINIA/OHIO River border.

| What a tragedy! I just saw the pics of the crushed tanker and hopper cars. Good thing they weren't full passenger cars. They said the death tolls up to 7 now.[:(] I wonder how bad this is going to affect river traffic. Lot of goods and materials go up and down that river every day.
