Ovvero non puoi non accorgerti di avere tallonato e ti fermi.
Quello che ancora non ho capito è se lo svio c'è stato o no.
DICKSON CITY, Pa. -- Four train cars were caught on camera as they fell off the tracks Tuesday in Lackawanna County.
Just after noon, those train cars carrying thousands of pounds of sand derailed in Dickson City, leaving behind a big mess that may take days to clean up.
Dickson City acting Police Chief William Bilinski witnessed the whole thing.
Bilinski was sitting in an SUV facing the tracks. He tells us he thought something was not normal with the flow of the train cars.
"I was watching the train cross the tracks. I saw one of the cars had a wheel that wasn't on the rail," he recalled. "Then the rest of the cars behind it as the train came down, started to build momentum rocking left to right until one of these cars got enough momentum and fell to the right and off the tracks."
The Delaware Lackawanna Railroad cleanup crews are facing a big mess -- huge mounds of sand, crumpled train cars that lost their wheels, and a twisted steel rail ripped from the railroad ties.
Officials from the Pennsylvania Northeast Regional Railroad Authority tell Newswatch 16 this train was headed for Carbondale, carrying tons of sand to be dropped off there and then transferred to trucks for fracking in the region.
Members of the railroad authority say no one was hurt in this accident and there is no danger to the public.
Investigators have not said what led to the wreck.
DICKSON CITY (WBRE/WYOU) - A train going from Scranton to Carbondale only made it a few short miles before derailing this afternoon near Eagle Lane.
The clean up started late Tuesday. Several cars derailed and some rolled over spilling their cargo. Sand and lumber are among the spillage.
The railroad company is working with Dickson City's Acting Chief William Bilinsky to determine a cause of derailment, but initial indications lean towards a rail separation.
"The ground moves, the rail moves, what's underneath it? Is there enough support? It could be anything. They're going to have to determine what caused it," said Chief Bilinsky.
A crane arrived on scene at about five o'clock Tuesday evening to lift three of the cars out an embankment.
It could take all week to get the railroad back on the move.
