Narrative

A BNSF train was pushing a conveyor train at Mill Creek yard. No spotter was being used. Our employee was on the locomotive of our ballast train loading cars on track #3. One of the switches at the cross-over was set to send the cards from track #2 to track #3. BNSF failed to align the switch back to track #2 and collided with our train.
