You obviously don't work in the rail industry. Yes, bad things do happen,
but that doesn't mean it is appropriate or tasteful for people to upload
pictorial accounts of them, and then post the URL to an associated
enthusiasts newsgroup.

I suppose you would also consider it appropriate to post pictures of the
biggest truck accidents where drivers' died, to misc.transport.trucking. Of
course, it must also be appropriate to post pictures of dead cops to
alt.fan.police. How about we fire (no pun intended) off some pics of toasted
firemen to alt.firefighters - Just because these tragic things do happen.

I suggest plastic bags, not paper ones.

Go away..
