I was following the train derailment.

Here's a quote from the Chicago Tribune:

"The trouble began about 2:40 a.m., when two cars of a maintenance train came off the tracks near Clark and School Streets, officials said. The cars were empty, and no injuries were reported."

Thankfully, this wasn't a full train at rush hour.

Was that the plan?

Of course they would have liked a full car on the train to de-rail.

But knowing how I dislike mondays, it would make them even worse, to have the train delayed while they cleared the tracks.......

a strike at the money part of the U.S. ?

Or ha-ha-ha, look what we can do.
