Surviving a tornado in a Train

This video from Twitter shows one of the numerous Nebraska tornadoes hitting a train head on. Luckily the crew was fine, but I am sure they had a scary few minutes watching it come at them. Thankfully they were already stopped on the tracks. Losing cars while in motion is messy.

NSFW because of language.

Thank God for 200 ton locomotives!

There's a prototype for everything.
If you can't make it perfect, make it adjustable.
DCC is not plug-n-play.
