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): |

REENWOOD CO., S.C. (WSPA) - GREENWOOD, S.C. (WSPA) - Rail operations are back to normal after a train accident caused several homes to be evacuated overnight in Greenwood County.
A CSX spokesperson said CSX employees at the Maxwell Rail Yard reported a train derailment just before 3:00am Saturday morning (Aug 25).
One of the rail cars was carrying hydrogen peroxide and began to leak following the derailment, a CSX spokesperson said. The leak was contained to the "immediate area around the railcar."
No one was injured, there were no public safety risks and waterways were not affected by the leak, a CSX spokesperson said.
Crews were able to contain the leak and the derailed cars were placed back on the track, according to CSX.
CSX says the yard has returned to normal operations.
"CSX thanks the dedicated first responders who assisted us this morning," the company said in a statement.
Authorities said the homes were evacuated Saturday morning as a precaution.
Greenwood County Emergency Management officials say they cleared the scene around 8:30am and turned it over to CSX to complete their cleanup..."

WAUWATOSA, WI -- A train derailment in Wauwatosa late Monday night, Aug. 20 threw 13 cars off the track and cut power to some We Energies customers. It happened around 10 p.m. just north of the Mayfair Collection near Penzeys Spices.
On Tuesday, Union Pacific Railroad officials worked as fast and as safely as they could to clear the derailment. The train was carrying a non-hazardous material. The battalion chief believes it was some type of construction sand.
"It seems like it's pretty contained on the tracks," said Tracy Justham, onlooker
By noon Tuesday, more than 12 hours after the derailment, several toppled cars could be seen about a quarter-mile down the track from Justham and her two sons.
Jimmy Justham said his father lost power overnight, about the same time the rail cars lost control. It made Jimmy and his younger brother curious about what it takes to clean up such a mess.
"We thought if we weren't in emergency personnel or workers' way, we'd come back and see what was going on," said Tracy Justham.
No injuries were reported, and at least one track appeared to be clear by early Tuesday afternoon, as the cars slowly rolled by the scene.
"It's going to be quite a while. They've got quite a few workers out here," said Tracy Justham.
We Energies reported 48 customers lost power because of the derailment, but power has since been restored.
The cause of the derailment has not been released.

A freight train carrying oil products derailed on Sunday morning, August 12, after a viaduct collapsed under its weight.
The accident occurred in Dolj county, in Southern Romania.
One of the railway lines on the viaduct was under construction and the first hypothesis about the accident is that the mechanic accidentally went on that line, local Mediafax reported. Moreover, the mechanic was drunk and he will be investigated for operating the train under the influence of alcohol.
The railway bridge collapsed on a distance of 50 meters and five wagons fell into a ravine. The train belongs to a private operator and had a total of 23 wagons.

WINDBER – Crews were responding to a train derailment in the heart of the borough on Monday night.
The derailment was reported shortly before 7:30 p.m. below Graham Avenue, Somerset County 911 officials said.
Windber Fire Chief Bob Haddad said no injuries were reported.
Norfolk Southern officials were inspecting the train and track to determine what caused the derailment and what it’ll take to address it, but Haddad said it’s likely the train won’t be moving until sometime Tuesday at the earliest. Somerset County 911 officials urged motorists to avoid traveling into the borough, if possible.
The 104-car train was hauling coal from the Mine 78 area, just outside the borough, Haddad said.
One of 10 Norfolk Southern rail cars that derailed Monday, Aug. 13, 2018, in Windber is shown.
Ten of its rail cars dislodged, leaving the entire train stranded along a 12-block corridor, between 17th and 5th streets.
Borough Manager Jim Furmanchik said it might be days before the derailment is cleared. Borough crews were blocking roads and posting signs along streets that were bisected by the train derailment.
“We’re stressing safety right now,” Furmanchik said. “And we’re telling people to be careful and stay back.”
It occurred on a section of the line that ran parallel to Jefferson Avenue, startling borough neighbors in the residential area that borders the line.
“I was sitting in my living room with my daughter and all of a sudden, there was this loud clunking sound,” 10th Street resident Mike Gindlesperger said. “Then, everything stopped.”
Gindlesperger ran outside to see a stretch of rail cars that had slipped off the track. At least one of them tipped sideways at an angle, but hadn’t toppled over, he added.
Given the number of buildings close by, “it definitely could’ve been worse,” he said

DEPOSIT, NEW YORK - At 2:01 am Thursday morning, a train carrying various types of waste, including hazardous materials, derailed east of Binghamton near Hale Eddy Road, on the Delaware River reported the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway.
Reports say the 63-car train was traveling west from New Jersey to Binghamton along the West Branch of the Delaware River with four locomotives. Reportedly one car contained corrosive material and 13 cars contained hazardous contaminated soil, the rest were either empty or carried construction debris or non-hazardous soils. Diesel fuel, up to 4,000 gallons, spilled into the West Branch of the Delaware from at least one of the locomotives.
According to the Friends of the Upper Delaware River, the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation said “the train was carrying an estimated 4,000 gallons of diesel fuel and a large percentage has spilled into the river.” At least 2 rail cars are in the river.
Emergency response teams are on site as well as the National Park Service. A State of Emergency was declared for the Town of Deposit due to severe flooding following heavy storms Tuesday night.
The train derailment was believed to have been caused by railroad tracks and a culvert washing out due to the storms.
Fast moving water is making it difficult to capture the oil, resulting in some of the fuel being swept downstream, potentially impacting water quality, river uses and wildlife for long distances

WENDALL, Mass. (WWLP) - A train carrying hydrocholoric acid derailed in Wendell overnight.
Six cars on a Pan Am train derailed just before 3:00 a.m. on Saturday. Four of those cars overturned just off of Farley Road.
Wendell and New Salem Fire Chief Joseph Cuneo said there were no passengers on board at the time, but some of the the train cars were filled with hydrocholoric acid.
Cuneo told 22News the heavy rains may have been a factor in the derailment.
"We can't tell for sure, but that's the supposition," said Chief Cuneo. "There's a washout, it's clear. it's obvious down there."
Chief Cuneo said the derailment did not cause any of the hydrocholeric acid to leak and this is not a hazmat situation.
"The primary concern right now is stabilizing the hydrocholoric acid tank car," said Massachusetts State Fire Marshall Peter Ostroskey. "The railroad is taking care of that operation."
Massachusetts State Fire Marshall Peter Ostroskey said hazmat will be on standby during this process in case a leak does happen.
After all of the cars are turned upright, the tracks will be cleared and repaired by Pan Am.
Cuneo said once that process is complete, the rails will reopen. He did not have a timeline for how long the cleanup might take.
