Train Derailment In Nevada Damages Shipment Of Vehicles; Your New Jeep Will Be Late But The Roll Bars Work Well

The delivery of your new Jeep Gladiator may take a little longer. A 33-car train derailed near Caliente, Nevada, on Wednesday. The derailment was so severe that the rail cars came completely off the rails, rolled over, and the train accordioned into a big pile.

In those rail cars were cars, as in passenger vehicles, mostly pickup trucks. Those included the new Jeep Gladiators, presumably heading to California dealerships.

As can be seen from the above the picture, the Gladiator can nicely support itself on its new roll-bars, which now extend to around the windshield, as in on the new JL Wrangler. The windshield still folds down but the frame remains, connected to the B-pillar frame.

Looks like several new GM trucks were also put out of their misery.
