Tsunami sweeps away train!

That video from above shows exactly how sturdy railcars are as compared to airplanes. One thing that I think is missing from this thread is which trains are actually missing: the souuuper high speed standard gauge Shinkansen, or the slower, smaller 42" gauge trains?

Thoughts and prayers

One BLEEP of a way to start your weekend. And I'm pretty sure 2 towns were missing, not just one.

Yeah, though one of the cars is pretty twisted up. This is just horrible beyond words. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Japanese people.
 
Most of those cars in the clip are somewhat intact but then there is that one that was bend and ripped open. Quite scary what a wall of water (and earthquake) can do.
 
If you got the money you should donate to help with the recovery effort and to help the nuclear explosion situation.
