Good morning everyone!

Kind of spooky...just heard that a train on the Metro-North line derailed coming into the Bronx. My family and I rode that train into the city less than a month ago.

Yes Andy, I saw the pictures.
I would hate to die in a fire.

Tom,
Nothing about the train.
I'm going to look for some info.

What should I go back and name this thread?

Apparently it's ice in some places. My daughter's nurse couldn't show up this morning because she got stuck in her driveway. Which is funny considering that she drives a 2012 Sierra 2500 4x4 pickup.

It's on the Harlem-Hudson line.
I doubt it affects the New Haven tracks.
Certainly I never stop at the Spuyten Duyvil station.

4 deaths reported now.

Ha ha, thanks Jim. My wife and I got a laugh out of that one, reps attempted.

It's unbelievably clean for a car that's been up north its whole life. Seems like the owners didn't like driving in snow, from below it could honestly be mistaken for a Florida car.
