South Africa steam derailment

Relayed from Australia this morning. A steam excursion train in South Africa was derailed, apparently by vandals, yesterday. No injuries to crew or passengers, but the photos are pretty scary. Here's a link:

Wayne,
Those pics are quite disconcerting. Makes you wonder why someone would purposely vandalize track given the sort of damage that would result.
