- 2003 – A northbound Union Pacific Railroad freight train runs past a signal displaying a stop indication and collides with the middle of a southbound BNSF Railway train traversing a crossover near Kelso, Washington; the crew of the UP train are injured, and a subsequent NTSB investigation shows that the engineer of the UP train had fallen asleep and did not see the stop signal.[1]
