From what I am hearing, it flew off the tracks at a very high rate of speed. Hmm, what was the driver doing? This does not look good. Real Sad. And those angry loony libs better not say anything!

Actually this was a false flag event in order to create a talking point for a huge infrastructure bill that will be contracted out to friends of those in the White House and Congress.

and why do these train derailments generally happen in deep blue states?

The infrastructure is fine. The track didn't fail. The NEW train derailed.

My heart goes out to the victims.

A derailment occurs when a vehicle such as a trainruns off its rails. ... Usually, the derailment of a traincan be caused by a collision with another object, an operational error, the mechanical failure of tracks, such as broken rails, or the mechanical failure of the wheels.

Perhaps something was put on the tracks just at the overpass.

One link on how our infrastructure is falling behind. Time to spend some money on it. Maybe time to back off on these wars we're involved in and spend some money on the home front?

remember when the bridge collapsed in Minnesota, almost immediatley, Sargaent Schultz blamed it on the GOP and Bush, even before the facts came in

This news is so very tragic. I am trying to follow it as we don't have much information as of this post. I have said prayers for victims of this train derailment on it's maiden voyage.
