Wife just called me into the living room - news coverage about a derailed BNSF freight outside of Valley Mills TX. My wife even recognized the location, as we pass right by there on our semi-monthly trips to Waco. I can't remember if this part is double-tracked or not. I think not. So, the TE is going to have issues. They just can't seem to get a break this week. I have been watching on Amtraks Train Tracker all week, and haven't seen a 21/22 running on time so far.
