Railfan Pictures of the Day - 03/09/2006
| CSX Bethlehem Branch Lansdale PA March 3 2006 |
| More on the derailment in Lansdale. Part One can be found here. |
| As the sidewinder lifted the tank car, the bolts holding the joint were cut. "Poo Bear", a return visitor to the branch, is actually the nickname of the operator. |
 |
 |
| Once the rail was loose, it was positioned under the wheels. |
 |
| With one truck back on the rails, the sidewinder was moved down to the other end. |
