Runaway Train Full Of Cheap Beer Spills Load In Denver. Frat Boys Rejoice.

No one was hurt, and the railroad’s mainline operations were not affected, said Steve Forsberg, a spokesman for BNSF Railway.

Forsberg said a switch engine was assembling a train around 4:30 a.m. when the crew lost control of the 34 cars, which rolled downhill into the stationary locomotive.

A tanker car carrying Coors beer overturned and spilled its contents onto the rail yard, Forsberg said.

Another car carrying asphalt was damaged and leaked.

Forsberg did not know how much beer and asphalt spilled.

Two parked locomotives were heavily damaged, and several freight cars were damaged.

JOKESTARTERS:

• Oddly enough, in a related event, a busload of pretzels crashed nearby, thus completing the fantasy bifecta of spilled frat boy dream goodies. Now if only a busfull of Hooters girls would crash…
• The most interesting aspect of this news event is that, because it was a load of Coors beer that spilled, nobody really gives a damn.
