I was informed by my dad of a Derailment in Kansas with a Freight train that occured sometime this week.

I have no idea exactly where it was, or what railroad was involved, but about 400 of my dad's uniforms that he sells at his business were in that train, and I guess they were destroyed, or something like that.
We are insured though.

Does anyone have any information about this accident?
It would help a lot.
Thanks

UncleBuck,
I found this by looking at Railnews.net on TrainWeb. There are a lot of interesting items here that don't make the TV news.
A BNSF train derailed near Kiowa on Sep 8, near the Kansas/Oklahoma border.
