Rolling Past the Derailment
Title:  Rolling Past the Derailment
Description:  AMTK 144 leads Texas Eagle #22 past the Taylor, TX Amtrak Depot on the siding. Normally the train passes by on the main, the track to the left, but it had to go through the siding to get around a derailment blocking the main, which can be seen to the left. The people standing near the left-hand signal are the passengers waiting to board the Eagle being escorted by UP employees.
