A return visit by romas191 & Kim Jahlas shows the crossing was recently the site of a huge derailment, where IAIS 513, heading westbound, had struck a semi, causing damage to the mainline and completely destroying the northern signal. At the time I'm writing this, the only confirmed casualty was the son of the truck driver.
