Train derailments

[Starr DiGiacomo]

JUST IN - Massive fire erupts after train carrying ethanol derails in Tepetitlán, Mexico, November 1, 2025 VIDEO: https://t.me/ZetaTalk_Followers/78651 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.

Wagons of goods train carrying explosives derails in Madhya Pradesh

Mar 21, 2016, 10.25 PM IST

BHOPAL: Emergency services were put on alert after two wagons of good train carrying high intensity explosives derailed near in Jabalpur district of Madhya Pradesh on Monday evening.
Bombs were loaded from ordinance factory Khamaria, Jabalpur for a ministry of defence' stores, said sources.
Wagons got derailed on a special line connecting the ordinance factory to Jabalpur main station.
Derailment of explosive-laden wagons near residential area pressed a panic button among the ordinance authorities and the local administration. Police and fire service were called to the scene.
A company of special armed force (SAF) was also deployed to stop curious residents from reaching the spot. Railway officials said that there was no impact on the rail traffic as the incident was on special line.

"Wagon no 13 and 14 which got derailed were put on track using heavy cranes. Operation lasted within one hour," a railway officer told TOI. Some of the wheels of one wagon slipped from the rail, but it remained upright, he said.
A committee has been set up by the railway department to inquire the matter, he said. One theory is that there must have been some subsidence under the track.
"The bombs were especially packed and there was no risk of explosion. Transportations were being carried out under controlled conditions," said sources in the ordinance factory.
This is the second such incident on this special line within 12 months. Last incident was reported on April 11, 2015 when five wagons of good trains loaded with explosives got derailed. No injury was reported.

KSN-TV reported that 11 passengers had been taken to Western Plains Medical Center in Dodge City, while 10 others had been transported to St. Catherine Hospital in Garden City. None of the injuries were reported to be life-threatening.

Dramatic Photos Show Aerial View of California Train Derailment

http://abcnews.go.com/US/dramatic-photos-show-aerial-view-californi...

MARCH 8TH:  Aerial photos capture the dramatic scene after a passenger train derailed in Northern California, sending the first car plunging into a cold creek.

A mudslide and trees on the tracks led to the Monday night derailment in Niles Canyon, Union Pacific Railroad spokesman Francisco J. Castillo told ABC News, adding that crews were still at the scene this morning removing the mud from the tracks.

The crews are taking the cars off the train tracks before they remove the car that fell in the water, Castillo said, and he estimated the process could take days.

The train had 214 passengers on board when it struck a tree on the tracks and derailed between Fremont and Pleasanton, according to ACE Train, which operates the commuter service between Stockton and San Jose.

Fourteen people were injured, ACE said. Nine people were transported to the hospital, five of them with minor injuries, while the remaining four had injuries that were considered serious but non-life threatening, according to the Alameda County Fire Department.

"Crews had to fight the creek's fast-moving currents to pull riders from the partially submerged rail car,” Alameda County Sheriff's Sgt. Ray Kelly said.

"It was dark, wet, it was raining," Kelly said. "It was very chaotic.”

Castillo said the water temperature was especially cold.
