Rules are Rules
The Good news:
It was a normal day In Sharon Springs Kansas , when a
Union Pacific crew boarded a Loaded coal train for the long trek to Salina
.
The Bad news:
Just a few miles into the trip a wheel bearing became overheated
and melted, letting a metal support drop down and grind on the rail, creating
white hot molten metal droppings spewing down to the
rail.
The Good news:
A very alert crew noticed smoke about halfway back in the train
and immediately stopped the train in compliance with the
rules.
The Bad news:
The train stopped with the hot wheel over a wooden bridge with
creosote ties and trusses.
The crew tried to explain to higher-ups but were instructed not to
move the train!
They were instructed Rules prohibit moving the train when a part is
defective!




REMEMBER, RULES ARE RULES!
Don’t ever let common sense get in the
way of a Good disaster!
