[In the message entitled "OUTAGE: train derailment in Atlanta, fiber cut" on Sep 11,  5:47, Sean Donelan writes:]
Today is off to a great start.

A train derailed outside of Atlanta cutting several fiber cables
affecting service in the southeast.

MFS has a total of 613 DS3's down at this time - no ETR.  No word on
how many other carriers are affected.  Outage began at 02:15 PDT,
roughly.

Looks like self-healing SONET, isn't. :-(
