I have been watching several channels on a Virtual Railfan site. My morning begins watching La Plata, MO and then I move to Fort Madison, IA. Somewhere around those 2 stops, I click over to Skykomish, WA. It is not a train stop, but just a tiny town that Amtrak goes by on it's way into or out of a long tunnel.
So Amtrak Train #7 is part of my life.
Yesterday at around 4PM, the train derailed and people were hurt and some died. I am heartbroken.
I know accidents happen on many things and it will not stop me from taking a train again...but my heart goes out to those hurt and those who are no longer with us.
I will pray for them all tomorrow, when my train does not pass.
