All of the pictures are in the fifth post of the thread. The pictures load
very slowly.

Beneath the pictures there is also a link to a set of photos (under the
heading "MORE PHOTOS HERE:") of a Porsche event (where the cars had just
come from). In with those pictures is a whole bunch of pictures of the
wrecked cars, the train, and what is left of the tractor and trailer.

Cheers,
Bruce
