Locomotive #8888, an EMD SD40 - 2, was pulling a train of 47 cars including some loaded with hazardous chemicals, and ran uncontrolled for two hours at up to 51 miles per hour (82 km / h). It was finally halted by a railroad crew in a second locomotive, which caught the runaway and coupled to the rear car . The incident inspired the 2010 motion picture Unstoppable . </P> <P> As of 2017 #8888 is still in service, having been rebuilt and upgraded into a SD40 - 3 as part of a refurbishment program carried out by CSX, although its number is now #4389 . </P>

When did the true story of unstoppable happen
