This power was 2nd unit on train Q194, a Atlanta to Charlotte intermodal. A freight ahead of the intermodal was stopped ahead in the block and hit the rear end of the standing freight. Several containers caught fire and burned for over a day. This line has CTC.

My God...it looks like something out of a horror film...I wonder if the prime mover will be recoverable?
