    Have you even wondered what would happen if a freight train ran through a strong thunderstorm with strong winds or even a tornado? Well, it happened on Jan. 8, 2008 in northern Illinois.
    The tornado was classified as a EF3 which is pretty strong. The whole story is is located here, and was reported by the National Weather Service
