I wonder what goes through an engineer's mind when he sees a house on the tracks ahead of him.

Am I the only one who is mystified by the explanation given for this wreck?? An apartment building being erected on an active rail line? I don't get it.
|
People were building ON the tracks?
|
I also would like to have more information on what happened here (be it a news story or something else).

That EMD looks as if it wanted to audition for the Beatles circa 1964.

I was dispatching that night on the SP and recall hearing about an ATSF train in the middle of the night striking a house that was being moved over the crossing on highway dollies. I believe the house was caught up in an overhead wire just prior to the incident. Much of the damage to the locomotive would most likely have been caused by steel beams supporting the structure.
