Switch Engine Stranded After Hitting Broken Rail
The High Point Randleman Asheboro Southern train was sidetracked near Home Building Material Co. due to a broken rail and heavy snow. The engine derailed with the wheel off the track, blocking cars on a side track for repairs. Snowy conditions, about 15 inches, thwarted on-site work, forcing a request to Greensboro for a replacement engine to recover the stranded locomotive.
