Unbelievable. The train was just swatted off the tracks like a little fly.

Re: Landslide derails train
Was the US, there was a thread on the N3V forum recently, never ceases to amaze me though how easily the train got swatted, can't fight mother nature I guess, luckily no one got hurt in this one.

Re: Landslide derails train
I saw this vid before chrimbo, some impressive stuff. I found another one of a US train being hit by a tornado while i was pottering around youtube. Sometimes I forget just how much power there is in nature
