SAR Derailment
Title:  SAR Derailment
Description:  Here the soggy conditions that the wrecking crew face can clearly be seen - note the mud submerged bogie to the right under the remains of the red wagon. The ground is so soggy that it's hard to walk, making it even harder for heavy machines to move around.
