Amazing video of 26th St. collapse in progress
Above: A frame from an amazing video showing the 26th Street cars as they fell over the edge and crashed down on the track.
At the risk of overloading Brew readers with 26th Street wall-collapse reportage, we thought this video was too good to pass up.
It’s from the ToddTesla YouTube page and it shows the parked cars slowly sinking (watch them closely as they slip below the road surface) and then rapidly crash down on the CSX track below.
The crash is loud, sending up a cloud of dust and prompting screams and shrieks.
The bystanders’ remarks, during the just over one-minute video, are telling.
“My car’s about to fall over.”
“It finally happened!”
“Three years. Three years we’ve been working on this.”
“We got hundreds of pictures.”
