    The one on the left was actually moving away from the camera. I waited until the engines were close together. Just luck it was even going by. I saw the derailed train and my camera was at home. Just a mile or so away. I didn't think the derailed engine was going anywhere and I had time to go home and grab a camera.

    Thanks Larry, Thanks GB I am unsure what happened but the next day it was gone so I am guessing they fixed it.
