You can see the massive response of manpower and machines that have come to this location just east of Keensburg to rerail and cleanup a tragic derailment of the eastbound Zephyr. The train struck a semi at a grade crossing out of the frame to the left. The train was at track speed, about 79 MPH, when the semi was struck. The engineers in the lead unit were reported injured and taken to a hospital. There were no reports of any serious injuries amongst the crew.
