Derailment  Contributor's Pick!       
Without a crane or heavy machinery, its no small task clearing the line following a derailment. After countless attempts with a cracked re-railing ramp, wooden blocks, and whatever else he could find thrown along the line, this skilled and well experienced CSX worker directed three hundred sixty eight thousand pounds of locomotive back on the rail, to the applause of the crowd of bystanders that had gathered to watch him work.
