This is one of those “one a billion” things. Structural failure is almost unheard of. And to be running a train over it? Huge yikes.

Thankfully no one was hurt. Curious to find out what happened!

@phill yikes, I saw the photos but didn’t realize they were running trains on it. How many cycles did it take for them to notice? 😬

@johnlago not sure, but I can’t imagine many. That said, people found pictures from a week ago where the crack was forming…!

@phill Dear Lord 😱

Especially considering how reliable B&M usually is
