You remove derailed trains, or you cause trains to derail?

Great pics. You know, we live about half a mile from the tracks. Stuff like that happens periodically. Im just glad there hasn't been some kind of hazardous chemical accident. There are train/car collisions a couple times a year. Bad stuff.

I've had dual-wheel tractors belly deep in mud, but you've pretty well topped that.
If my buddies need their locomotives back on the tracks, I'll give them your number. :lol:
Good pix.

Remove derailed trains, build the grade back and set new panels or switches whichever is destroyed, in the down time put in new crossings, new switches or dirt work/grade work for expanding yards

I am glad it isn't the other. No, seriously, that looks like good business. I imagine it involves a bit of travel, eh? You can't always rely on trains to derail in your general area.

When there is a derailment, does the insurance company still condem the contents of the train?

A few years ago I got my hands on a truckload of salvaged cow mineral. Seemed like a real sweet deal until I had to unload the truck by hand. I even offered to share the spoils with anyone who would come get some. I was shocked at how few people took me up on this and I was floored by the number that wanted me to deliver it to them.:roll:
