Auto carrier train derailment in Utah - hope no Broncos onboard

[Bronco4lyfe85]

Whether this picture is from this derailment or another, it doesn’t matter - #1 thing: Hopefully nobody got seriously hurt. #2: It’s just a vehicle. Trust me, I’m as antsy as everyone on this forum for my Bronco, and whether it’s a Bronco, Jeep, Ferrari, etc. it doesn’t matter - Someone is eagerly awaiting their vehicle. I can’t imagine getting that call saying there’ll be a further delay.

Feel bad for all that are involved with this, whether on the train or waiting for an ordered vehicle.

Oh yeah, of course human life is more important! I was just saying with how everyone here is waiting I wouldn’t be laughing at anyone going through this. It sucks. First world problems.

Totally get it - My comment was more a general statement than directing it at you. I agree with your post above

I can’t believe people laughed about this photo. These are very likely customer orders with the way things are going that they’ve been waiting for excitedly. That would be so frustrating.

I did not laugh about the photo. I did laugh about the Broncos on board comment, because those are clearly not Broncos and I was not sure if the poster was serious or not. The other thing is, frankly, if you order a Jeep right now, they're arriving in a month or so. Not so with Broncos.

Cheers,

This is definitely Ford's fault! They just keep doing things to compound this "disaster" of a rollout.

This thread is a jumbled mess of bad information and virtue signaling.

I don’t think this is an actual photo of this particular derailment

Ya it doesn’t seem to match up.

RIP Broncos on Board

This was actually from 07/10/2019 north of Vegas. But I’d love to get my hands on one of those Gladiators and build a desert runner, overland rig out of it...scratches buff out

Just this thread?........

Those tire tracks make me think the Torettos were involved.

You should have seen it last night before the mods purged it. In retrospect I'm not proud of contributing, I should have just ignored it.

You don't need Broncos when you got.....Family.

That's some nasty crap running out of those cars. I hope it didn't screw anything up as that's some beautiful country. And, I'm happy to see no one was seriously injured. Material things can be replaced, humans not so much.

I'm sure Ford has sent a salvage team to see if the MIC tops can be unbent, washed-up, & made pretty again

Your posts seemed fine IMHO. That other guy seemed way out of sorts - maybe had a bad day or something -

By the way, this train wreck is fairly close here - about 50 miles -

Sometimes it's better just to not engage though.

Look, I get that the well being of the humans is more important than a car. That goes without saying, so why say it, instead let's talk about the subject of this forum, the car.

Hope no Broncos heading West were affected, and hope the 3 people injured are ok.
