This is exactly why the X’s are at the guard rails on every road. You can blow your horn and shake your fist and pull right up to the guard rail. Good luck to you when those train cars derail!

With a 2 mile long train, there is NO controlling the rearend of the train or the middle of it for that matter. But this is CSX’s new plan. Take 3 regular trains and make 1 super train. Less manpower and minimal engines usage. And the sad part is this was actually a smaller train, my longest one through there was over 3 miles long

Gov Ivey did the right thing by blocking Amtrack from coming into this area. As with most roads in the Atmore area the tracks are in poor condition.

I hope a thorough investigation is made. This deeply concerns me.
