Wow? I thought it was going to be sucked up in the air Wizard of Oz style. Boring!

oops. could have cut to the better bit. But a bit boring really. That truck behind that crashed could have exploded into a firely ball of death or something!

If the cars were empty it's not that impressive tbh, very high localised windspeed and a large side area for the wind to work on, all it had to do was push one car beyond the balance point and the lever motion would lift the rest causing the derail

I, too, was expecting something like the cow scene from twister:D

Just one pair of axle running gear "bogeys" IE 1 end of a carriage weighs in excess of 20 tonnes. not even including the steel work and the container on top!

Id say that was a wow.
