A Kansas City Southern train carrying military fighting vehicles derailed Sunday, dumping its cargo across the tracks and into a Bolton neighborhood.
Twisted steel and tanks lying on their side greeted Addy Green outside her Bolton home. It happened near John Davis Drive. A train car smashed through her neighbor's home.
Twenty-two train cars derailed just after 2:00 Sunday afternoon. Their cargo was M-1 A-1 Abrams Tanks and Bradley Fighting vehicles.
The train was heading west carrying nearly 40 of the military vehicles to California in advance of the 155th Aarmory Brigade's training at Fort Irwin.
