Check out this great video of a recently derailment in Glendive, MT:

BNSF derailments aren't uncommon in Glendive as well as the Alberton, MT area. The problem with the Alberton area is that trains usually have the tendency to slide down the bank into the Clark Fork River.
 


Interesting how the rig closest to the camera was dragging his left track so much. I guess it kept him from swinging into the car.

Any speculation as to what caused this one?
 
From time to time I could (use) a machine like the one in the video on my layout.

Just contact RJ Corman Model Services. Be sure to specify your scale. (You wouldn't want some large scale tracked vehicles creeping around on your Z scale layout.)
