It looks like the weight of that granite may have been too much for the track in Lawrence Yard. See the photo of derailment from Hayden Logan on NERAIL site----- http://photos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo ... ex=3&key2=

The weight of someone standing on the rails in that yard are too much!

Fun Fact: The National Building Granite Quarries Association has a map of all member quarries at http://nbgqa.com/quarries/
Haven't had time yet to look them up and see which ones might be on NS.
