That's unusual.  A train derailment usually effects more than one
provider, and normally does not cause network-wide BGP resets.

Some C&W transport was lost as well.  They also have a master ticket open.

UUNET support says that the outage relates to a train derailment in the
northeast that occured this morning.  master ticket no. 562655.

Thought this happened YESTERDAY - 4/24 ...  Another one?

Anyone else seeing routing instability through UUNET or have any more
details?  I saw a significant drop in my inbound and outbound traffic to
them around 10:00AM EDT.  UUNET has a prompt on their phone menus about
network instability, but didn't elaborate.  Their NOC doesn't have any
more details as of yet that they're passing along.
