Unhappy Train wreck involving multiple Porsches.

I only heard a small part of the news on a radio station today here in Tampa. It stated something about a transport carrying vintage Porsches in California gotstuck on a railroad crossing and was then struck by a train. It also stated that there were pieces of Prosches scattered everywhere.

Very dissturbing. Has anyone else heard anything about this? I tried searching for it but came up empty. Was this perhaps a carrier coming from the recent event in Cali?

I saw it

I saw the wreckage in person afterwards and it was enough to make a grown man cry (I'm sure a few guys were). What a serious bummer I must say the guy with red red speedster sure lucked out.

It was at the German Autofest in Ventura when the cars were leaving the show.
