Thursday, July 3, a train carrying six Boeing 737 fuselages, and sub-assemblies to 777 and 747s derailed about 20 miles from Superior, Montana. The photo shows three 737 fuselages nose and tail down in a river, apparently having come from somewhere quite a way up. The Boeing site shows that new Boeing 737s go for around 76-109 MILLION dollars EACH. That, right there, is a large chunk of change. Not that that amount is huge on the scale that Boeing builds, but still, I would not want to be found at fault for the derailment and subsequent loss and damage to the freight!!!! You can see more here, and here.
