Train derailments
Spain Experiences its Worst Train Accident in 40 Years An increase in train derailments was one of the first symptoms of the approach of Planet X to become noticeable, being expressed even before Planet X entered the inner solar system in 2003. Planet X was described as affecting the Earth from afar, like tugging on the edge of a spider web where the effects are felt elsewhere on the web; in this way there has been an increase in earthquakes and unpredictable weather going back years, even before Planet X entered the solar system, due to the increased swirling of the Earth’s core. It is therefore logical that an increase in train derailments would accompany any increase in seismic activity – train tracks need to be straight and even the slightest shift to the side of a section of track would cause a train to derail. The area most affected by train derailments is the stretch zone. Stretch zone quakes are silent, and people are generally unaware anything is happening, although signs such as booms and trumpet sounds can occur. This zone stretches from Western Europe across the Eurasian Plate, and also includes the South-East United States, the St. Lawrence Seaway, the Red Sea and the African Rift. In other parts of the world, shifting ground is more associated with earthquakes that people are aware of, such as the Pacific which is compressing, so authorities inspect railway tracks after any seismic activity, reducing the likelihood of accidents. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some Examples (click on pictures for link): |

NJ Transit's 2nd nightmare
Last Updated: 6:49 AM, August 12, 2011
Posted: 1:38 AM, August 12, 2011
NJ Transit riders were once again greeted with a nightmare commute home last night after the second train derailment of the week wreaked havoc on the system.
An Amtrak train skipped a stretch of track in Queens shortly after 4 p.m. Because both systems use that track to get into Penn Station, NJ Transit was forced to reroute its Northeast Corridor service at rush hour.
Some trains were delayed, further irritating commuters still reeling from Tuesday's meltdown.

Published : Friday, 12 Aug 2011, 9:28 PM EDTSTOCKBRIDGE, Mass. (WWLP) - At least 12 rail cars of a 2000-foot-long freight train tipped over during a derailment in Stockbridge Friday night.
Stockbridge Police officer Bruce Stringer said some 600 feet of track were damaged when the train left the tracks a little after 6:30 p.m. Officer Stringer said the Housatonic Railroad train was hauling trash from Canaan, Connecticut to Pittsfield. The train is stuck on and off tracks parallel to Glendale Road between Furnace Road and Great Barrington town line.
The affected area is on tracks parallel to Glendale Road near Furnace Road. Police have closed a section of Glendale Road where the fire department has set up a command post.
"There is no fuel spill. There is no Hazmat... No one was hurt" Stringer said.
Stringer also told 22News that, "there are at least a dozen cars on their side, and several others leaning over... it's dark."
Stockbridge firefighters were called in to hose down the cargo of garbage, which officer Stringer said was smoking.
Police and recovery workers are waiting for daylight to better assess the situation, and await the arrival of heavy equipment to begin the process of removing the derailed freight cars.http://www.wwlp.com/dpp/news/local/berkshire/train-derailment-in-be...
