Headline on paper front page online. Controversial Metro Rail hits Prison bus. More details to follow.

[Jalapeno]

Houston Ping please

[mlbford2]

The Train of Pain stikes again.

[inkling]

Was Harrison Ford seen running from the accident?

[dead]

Sounds like the start of a new Bruce Willis movie.

[hflynn]

Let us know if Dr. Richard Kimble is seen running from the train.

[Jalapeno]

We'll just call out Tommy Lee Jones!

[Willie Green]

I'll give 10:1 odds that the prison bus was making an illegal left-hand turn.

[CJ Wolf]

ConRail?

[Frank_Discussion]

So Metro will tell us.

[CzarNicky]

this is why we don't run trains on the street

[Constitution Day]

Well, I can guarantee the train wasn't making an illegal left-hand turn.

;^)

[annyokie]

There is no way I would ride the train in Houston. This is like the third or fourth wreck in the last six weeks!

[TXBSAFH]

The Wham Bam Tram strikes again.

[Egon]

Damn it!

Why can't it ever be a train carrying the envoy of the love-slave exporting planet of Xanidu, colliding with the tour bus containing the entire Swedish Bikini team?

I thought they weren't going to report on Metro Rail accidents anymore. Waste of ink. Dog bites man. Ho hum...

[flashbunny]

I thought the chronic wasn't going to cover these 'minor train fender-benders' anymore.

[TXBSAFH]

You are right about the turn. But it still is proving to be a less then swift idea to run a train on the street. This baby was a recipe for disaster from the get go.
