Don't Try To Outrun The Train

I had promised to a few people that I would have pictures from Thursday's 2816 chase from Lethbridge to Calgary. I apologize for not fulfilling my promise. With thanksgiving this weekend, I was a bit occupied. Please be patient, it will come. It was an awesome chase and there's also an interesting bit to the story.

I did come across this video clip I found in Canadian Railway Observations September's newsletter issue of a semi truck getting hit by a CN intermodal train. From the article in the newsletter, the power was an SD70M-2 and an SD75I.
