Title:  AMTK 31
Description:  AMTK still sits on a storage track after derailing on October 21. Cause of derail unknown to investigators. News reporters never said or asked the question why the train was switched off of the mainline on to tracks that are almost 100 years old and used for storage. The fact if it hadn't derailed it would of hit the ballest hoppers in front was never brought up either.
