Philadelphia derailment and topple

A train derailed near Race St along the Schuylkill Banks in Philly last night, then fell over as they tried to re-rail it.

Here is a link to some photos I took as I passed by:

OMG, I tell ya those rerailing crews are crazey. Looks like one of the pins sliped or a cable broke on the sidewinder. Hope no one was hurt.

when that car started to tip over i thought that sidewinder was toast. The guy operating that definitely had to check his pants after that one.

From a SEPTA departing 30th St towards Malvern at about 4:30 PM, I saw CSX 5230 and 7377 lead some of the cars south on the High Line past 30th St Station.
