Yep! I broke it...
I was shoving a cut of cars down a siding, and apparently there was something wrong with the track...
Ooooops!

Evidence as to why I should not run on your railroad.

GG, when backing up, please keep the speed under 90 mph and keep at least 3 wheels on each car on the track at all times. ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

It was far under 10mph, but the cars split the switch because the points were filed too much, and the braking delay... the locomotive kept pushing them all off the tracks!

I have the same problem. :( It happens to me even when my DCC GP40 has it's motor humming. So i did some experimenting and found out it was a long line of......8 reefers?!?!?! Well don't know what to say, take cuts at a time? Who knows!

Someone want's their money back entrusting your services. Don't worry, you can run my railroad. (Yeah right.) What?! Who?! Where?! How did the mineral red, and greatly weathered ( ;)), boxcar end up uncoupled yet jack-knifed?
