Uhm. are you sure this was only last fall? This photo sequence has been floating around for some time. Take a close look at those trucks. That's the previous generation Chevy pickup, and even though they marketed it as a "classic" for a short period of time, I believe it's been gone for quite some time. My guess is that's close to four years ago.

Well when I looked up the pictures on the net ( I have seen them before also) the one place said that the pics where taken in October of 2009 . Now that is only one source but you know the internet is never wrong

I do know that the rail worker was killed in January of this year though.

Try 2006. These vehicles would be covered by insurance and the insurance company would get rid of them.
