"Was in Ladysmith today and surveyed the equipment damage.
The caboose appears to have come through without a scratch. The
Visitor Center's baggage cart is in pieces. The diesel has broken out
windows and maybe some paint loss on the roof. The passenger cars
were tipped over and indentations in the ground indicate that they
bounced about a foot. The steps are intact. The trucks came partway
off/completely off, depending on whether their chains held. The
brake rods are twisted. the roofing on the end two cars is partly off.
There were pieces off window sash on the ground and from the impact
pattern, it's a pretty safe bet that there is extensive window/door
damage on the sides that are underneath. Frames appear to be in good
shape, but my guess is that they will need two cranes to lift if they
want prevent further damage as they right the cars. I was told that
the roofing over the steam engine waqs badly damaged but the engine
itself was OK. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask."
