Have you heard about First Dog? It's a very good comic I just love.

Also, wear your bike helmets kids. I copped several blows to the head but my helmet left me totally unscathed.



Finally you should check out First Dog as it's a good comic I like it very much.

I'm going to be honest. I found the idiot making an illegal turn and holding up traffic to be more interesting. It was only on the second loop that I noticed there was a gigantic hole.

:same:

The turn might even be legal, but driving forward made the whole turn awkward. Cars delenda est, etc.

Guy in Sacramento thought the trains that roll behind his house had started to sound weird recently.
Finally went and looked only to discover a rail had broken.

It is surprisingly hard to derail a train with just a break in the track:

Probably different now with modern car loads, though.

How does that not get caught sooner? I mean, yes, capitalism and the railroads not wanting to pay for maintenance, but there's a mainline near where I live and I see a hi-rail truck run down it for rail inspections every day.

trains can go over surprisingly large gaps in the rail without derailing. surprised you see the trucks that often though

It's a stretch of main line that serves a port so it gets a lot of traffic. I guess it gets more maintenance because of that. They also send a MoW group down it at least once a year to refresh ballast, change out old ties, etc. I'm not surprised that even heavily used lines don't get that level of care, but I am surprised they don't send a couple of guys in a hirail down the line in the article every couple of days, at least.

Train derailment

A train hauling ethanol derailed Thursday morning in Raymond, Minnesota, igniting several rail cars and forcing nearby residents to evacuate, officials said.

Preliminary information suggests 14 of the train’s 40 cars were carrying hazardous material, “including ethanol, which was released – leading to a fire,” US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg told CNN on Thursday.

I just noticed that there’s someone still in the car. They try to brake to stop from being pushed but give up. You can see the light at the top of the rear window come on briefly then go off when he gives up.

It seems that there are two in the car.

Both doors on the passenger side open, and two people get out.

Rear door on the driver’s side starts to open, but no one gets out.

Driver’s door never opened.
