Unfortunately, derailments are a part of life for railroads. Most derailments are minor, with only a single axle or maybe a truck derailing with everything remaining upright. However, sometimes things are work. BNSF 4272 toppled onto its side when its train (a southbound intermodal train) struck cars that had rolled out onto the main track at the south switch of Boulder.
