Why would they report about this? Minor derailments occur frequently, it is mostly still on the tracks, it didn't even tip over all the way. UP could just send a crane truck, a flatcar and locomotive to the crossing, and have it fixed pretty soon. Use the crane to put the car on the flatcar, and haul it away.

Not being funny but shouldn't these type of threads be posted in Prototype Talk, not the General Trainz section? There are at least two threads running re US rail incidents, can the mods not move them and remind the OP's "General Trainz" is for discussion of the sim, not events in the real world.
