Above, a view of the derailment from the eastbound lanes of I-40. |
Interstate 40 is slowly getting back to normal in New Mexico.
Both directions (east and west) of the major thoroughfare are now open.
From the photo above, I know exactly where the derailment took place. It is just beyond the eastbound on-ramp of Interstate 40, fairly near Chief Yellowhorse Trading Post. I've been there many times while going to Tee Pee Trading Post in Lupton, Arizona.
Many people posting on the Facebook New Mexico Road and Weather Reports Updates have been posting warnings to others such as this:
I-40 near NM/AZ Stateline by Lupton is opened EB, WB! Just be careful of some traffic backup!
FYI: Seen people try to stop or slow down on i40 to take pictures of the crash site, pls don't. You're might cause an accident!!
Good advice!
