Hopefully they have Liberty Mutual and can get accident forgiveness!

Was this the same locomotive that had the yellow and black "Caterpillar" colors painted on it for awhile?

I laughed when I heard that ALL THREE of A&M's brand new SD70ACes rolled over. They were brand new locomotives (technically), they were purchased to replace locomotives that were almost 40-45 years old, and all three of them roll over right after they're acquired. The damage actually looks worse than what I had imagined, even though it did roll over.

No laughing matter, especially for the crew. Only the lead locomotive (#70) rolled over. The trailing units derailed, but remained upright.

It's sad to see damage to any new locomotive. There will be much required to make this "new" again. Great photo, Jim. It's amazing no one was injured.
