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.

CN train derails in Grande Prairie

http://www.dailyheraldtribune.com/2015/04/08/cn-train-derails-in-gr...

Wednesday, April 8 may go down as one of the best days ever for local rodent and pigeon populations.

Shortly after 7:30 p.m., three CN Rail grain cars left the track just south of 116 Avenue, spilling canola onto the grass surrounding the line.

A fourth grain car remained upright, with significant damage to its undercarriage.

The track and railway ties below the cars appeared severely distressed and bent out of shape, making the occasion far less memorable for the approximately dozen CN Rail employees attending to the derailment.

Grande Prairie RCMP and Fire Department responded along with the CN officials. Police say no injuries have been reported.

The train sat idle across 116 Avenue, 108 Avenue until two engines pulled away the unaffected cars from either side of the spill, just before 8 p.m. All area roads are now open.

CN workers on scene were giving attention to a portion of the track just north of 116 Avenue which appeared to also be bent of alignment. Brent Kossey, a public affairs official with CN Rail confirmed that the matter is under investigation but that no cause had been determined.

Railroad official says no immediate threat after trail derails near Irondale City Hall

Posted: Mar 31, 2015 10:19 PM EDTUpdated: Apr 01, 2015 12:42 AM EDT

IRONDALE, AL (WBRC) -Irondale police are responding to a train derailment in the heart of the city on Tuesday around 8:30 p.m.

A railroad official said there is no immediate threat and the clean up is expected to take 10 to 12 hours to complete.
Norfolk Southern said the train was pulling into the yard at Irondale when the derailment happened. The train has three locomotives and 123 rail cars.

Police said there is diesel fuel leaking from an engine. Norfolk Southern officials said 13 cars have derailed. One is leaking liquid rubber and another is leaking a small amount of caustic soda or lye, which is used in household cleaning solutions. Environmental crews are on the scene helping with the clean up.

Officials are still asking people to stay in their homes and away from the area of city hall along 20th streets south and north while officials clean up. Police have blocked off roads within a four mile radius.
Mangina said there are no reported injuries after the derailment.

Mangina doesn't know how long this will take and says it could pose difficulties in the morning

"We're kind of a small police department and right now we've got a lot of our guys tied up on this. We still have officers patrolling streets and if this last all night or through tomorrow it's going to hurt a little bit. We do a good job for our citizens," he said.

Pictured: Twisted, crumpled wreckage of massive freight train after it was derailed by 'slight landslide' near tiny Greek settlement 

  • Two drivers were injured when train derailed in Greece's Gefyra settlement
  • It was headed to Hungary from Greece's second largest city Thessaloniki
  • Size of the freight train dwarfs the local people inspecting the wreckage  
  • 15 of its 30 carriages which were carrying electronics came off the tracks

Two drivers were injured when a massive freight train derailed in northern Greece and crumpled into a pile of twisted metal.

A 'slight landslide' forced it off the tracks as it passed through the tiny Gefyra settlement en route to Hungary, local website News 247 has reported.

15 of its 30 carriages derailed in the horrific accident which has now blocked the track linking Greece's second largest city Thessaloniki and Belgrade in Serbia 'indefinitely'.

The local people inspecting the wreckage are completely dwarfed by the enormity of the train's containers.

CHURCHILL COUNTY, Nev. (MyNews4.com & KRNV) -- According to the Churchill County Sheriff's Office, U.S. 95 is now reopened following today's train derailment.

Officials from the local HAZMAT team say the area is safe for travel and no threat is posed to the public.

The investigation has been completely turned over to Union Pacific.

CHURCHILL COUNTY, Nev. (MyNews4.com & KRNV) -- The Nevada Highway Patrol reports a train derailment near U.S. 95 northbound mile marker 47 between Fallon and I-80.

Officials say the train tracks intersect U.S. 95 and the train derailed about eight miles from the highway. 

According to Francisco Castillo, the Public Information Officer for Union Pacific, 48 of 51 total train cars have derailed; but there are no injuries reported at this point.

Union Pacific is currently conducting the investigation, but we do not yet know the cause of the derailment. 

NHP tells News 4 the highway is shut down in both directions at mile marker 47 because of a possible hazardous spill resulting from the derailment. They say they don't have the HAZMAT equipment necessary to get close enough to confirm whether or not there is a spill.

CP train derailment near Wetaskiwin, more than a dozen cars leave tracks

Transportation Safety Board says no injuries reported following derailment of 15 to 20 potash cars

CBC News Posted: Mar 22, 2015 1:20 PM MT

A train derailment south of Edmonton has left over a dozen train cars mangled on the side of a highway Sunday morning.

The Transportation Safety Board has confirmed between 15 to 20 cars, all carrying potash, left the tracks near Highway 13, about one kilometre outside the town of Wetaskiwin, Alta.

"It’s just a total wreck,” said Dale Aitchison, who came across the derailment shortly after it happened.

"They are pretty much crunched up and piled up on top of each other.”

While no one was injured in the derailment, Aitchison said the incident made him worry about the safety of having freight trains run so close to the town.

"There’s a lot of oil, a lot of gas around here. If that left the tracks, it would be devastating.”

The highway has been blocked off and a team of investigators with the safety board is expected to arrive on scene later in the afternoon

Train hauling methanol derails in central Texas, prompting evacuations


Authorities said several train cars carrying methanol derailed Saturday, March 21, 2015, near Valley Mills, Texas.

VALLEY MILLS, Texas -- Texas authorities are evacuating homes after at least 10 train cars derailed near Valley Mills, including five tanker cars carrying methanol.

According to Bosque County Emergency Manager Tim Jeske, the derailment happened around 5 p.m. Saturday, CBS affiliate KWTV in Waco reported.

Department of Public Safety spokesman Trooper D.L. Wilson told the Associated Press one or two of the methanol-hauling tanks have small leaks.

A hazardous materials crew was on scene and environmental tests were being performed, according to KWTV.

Wilson says that as a precaution, about 10 homes within a thousand feet of the derailment have been evacuated.

No injuries or fires were been reported.

According to Wilson, the cause of the derailment is unknown. Heavy rain in the area was making it difficult for vehicles to get to the scene to unload material from the derailed cars, which also include seven flatbeds carrying oil-well pipes.

Valley Mills is about 25 miles northwest of Waco in central Texas.

Cargo train derails in east Jackson

Story Created: Mar 11, 2015 at 6:49 PM CDT

JACKSON, Tenn. - A scene some residents describe as rare, as an afternoon freight train derails and leaves a big mess on an east Jackson roadway.

Hundreds of thousands of pounds of corn were piled along James Buchanan Drive after two freight cars fell on their sides. Traffic can now pass through the area but there is still a lot of work to be done to get things cleared up

"We just need to get it cleaned up, so the people can be safe out here," resident Virginia Hurd said. "Hopefully they get that done as soon as they possibly can."

Residents said they heard the moment the train ran off the tracks

"It was a loud noise, a boom," Mcewen Bond said. "So we ran to the neighbors and then we saw the train leaning over." 

Officials with West Tennessee Railroad said the 30 car train was traveling at a low rate of speed before it ran over a broken switch which caused the train to jump the tracks. 

"Never have I seen this," Hurd said. "I've been in this community for 60 years and this is the first time."

With trains traveling in this area all the time residents said they are just happy things were not worse. 

"I'm glad no one was through here and no one got hurt," Hurd said.

West Tennessee Railroad said the clean-up will really begin Thursday morning.

They are going to bring in some heavy machinery to re-rail the cars and also fix some of the track that were damaged during the derailment.

Huge fire: Train carrying crude oil derails in Canada

1.7K468

A train carrying crude oil has derailed in Northern Ontario and burst into flames. This is the fourth derailment in the province since the start of the year.

CN Rail, the owner of the rail network in the eastern Canadian province, said the crash took place at 2:45 am on Saturday. No one was injured.

Three roads near the community of Gogama, where the accident took place, have been sealed off for up to 36 hours.

The $70-billion Canadian National Railway Company suffered its last derailment in nearby Horneypayne just two days earlier, though there was no chemical spillage in that crash.

But a massive explosion, also in Gogama, just last month resulted in the spillage of more than 1 million liters of bitumen into the environment, after 15 carriage tanks were breached, following yet another derailment. The authorities said that the spill contaminated a nearby lake and pond, but insisted the toxicity levels were not threatening to humans or wildlife.

Last year Canadian authorities instituted more stringent safety standards for rail cars carrying flammable liquids, and last month new rules increased insurance liabilities for companies transporting dangerous goods.

The measures are a response primarily to the Luc-Megantic disaster of 2013, when an oil-laden train exploded after a derailment in an urban area in Quebec, causing the deaths of 47 people.

The industry has resisted sweeping measures, which it says will force it to refit 50,000 train carriages in a decade, scuppering the oil-by-rail revolution that has taken place in the last half decade, caused by production expansion in Western Canada, and limits in pipeline capacity. Canadian train tracks are expected to carry 700,000 barrels of oil a day by next year, up from less than 300,000 in 2009.
