Disfunction leads to Disaster
Title:  Disfunction leads to Disaster
Description:  A rather pointless and misleading signal at Graniteville gives a clear indication as NS 155 roars up from behind. In the foreground is the switch where 155's counterpart collided head on with local P22, causing a major derailment followed by a chlorine spill that claimed many peoples lives and shuttered the towns main employer, Avondale Mills. You would think NS would have installed safety measures such as properly functioning signals to the line, but this is not the case.
