    Night before last ,(01/29/24) EB Zepher hit of all things a milk truck close to Keenesburg CO about 2200. The train derailed, all cars remained intact and upright, but the lead unit ended on its side. So far 4 people injured, (as reported) the only one serious, and was flight for life sent to hosp, the AMTK engineer, with life threatening injuries. The truck driver, and passenger (un-injured) as reported, ran a stop indication and pulled in front of the train.
    I hope you all will join me, in wishing for the speedy recovery of all, including that AMTK engineer. I been trying to find out who it is, news says he is from UT.

    I'm praying for the victim of someone else's stupidity.
