Train accident in D.C. -- Not good!!

[Puddlejumper]

I just came from there... (i'm a firefighter in D.C.) I can assure you the pics on TV do it no justice. The one car almost completely telescoped, it was one of the old style cars. I think the new cars are designed not to do that. I am sorry to say there were several that did not survive, including at least one train operator. How horrible for everyone involved.
