A hyrailer this large would surely shunt the track. The hyrail wheelset pictured in the rubble appears to be from a set of DMF (Diversified Metal Fabricators) Model 16-30 "RoadRailers" which we have on one of our trucks and they easily shunt the track.

Seems like an unusual amount of large hyrail vehicle accidents lately???

Guess we'll have to wait until the dust settles for an official explanation.
