[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 281733, member: 5529"] [Halfway across the country, a freight train bound for Chicago derailed Friday, spilling several train cars loaded with UPS packages in Indiana. Hundreds of UPS workers were sent to the site to load packages onto trailers and get them back on their way, company spokesman James Vickery said. An engine and 10 cars derailed about 10 miles east of Gary, Norfolk Southern spokesman Rudy Husband said. No injuries were reported, but the derailment also blocked some Amtrak trains to and from Chicago. Amtrak said it arranged for buses to bring passengers to Chicago or to Michigan City or Toledo, Ohio, to board other trains. The freight train, which was traveling from Secaucus, N.J., was hauling 39 UPS containers. The UPS tracking system will allow customers to track their packages online and be notified whether their parcel was thrown off the train, Vickery said] Now where is UnitedPackageSmashers when Ups doe`s something like this? We`ll probably get the blame for the derailment and no credit for the extra effort. [/QUOTE]
