Train derailments
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. |

Tuesday storm derails train near Chaffee
Thursday, January 31, 2013
ROCKVIEW, Mo. -- High winds and heavy downpours that swept across the area Tuesday night are reported to have damaged property, blown two tractor-trailers over and caused several Union Pacific rail cars to derail near Chaffee.
No local fatalities were reported.
Trooper Clark Parrott, spokesman for the Missouri State Highway Patrol, attributes that to people being warned in advance of the approaching storm.
"There were weather warnings issued almost all day before the storm arrived in the area," Parrott said. "I think a lot of people heeded those warnings and stayed inside. Otherwise, there may have been more serious injuries for us to report."
Robert E. Wyatt of Dexter, Mo., received moderate injuries when wind blew his tractor-trailer off Highway 25 about one mile north of Delta. Parrott said another driver was uninjured when his tractor-trailer overturned on Highway 25 south of Bernie, Mo.
There were no injuries involved in the derailment of Union Pacific rail cars in Rockview, Mo., in Scott County north of Chaffee, Mo. Nearly 50 rail cars were overturned by the winds, and approximately 800 feet of damaged track will need to be repaired or replaced. Mark Davis, a spokesman for Union Pacific, confirmed Wednesday that the railroad company's preliminary report on the incident will blame winds for the derailment.
The cars were carrying auto parts. Davis said the engineer was slowing the train after hearing tornado warning reports from a dispatcher, and the emergency brakes were engaged.
Weather might have contributed to an accident that shut down northbound Interstate 55 at Cape Girardeau when a tractor-trailer jackknifed and was hit by a car driven by Cape Girardeau County Judge Scott Lipke, but a police accident report wasn't complete Wednesday.
The National Weather Service stayed busy Tuesday night, gathering information and issuing weather reports that at times included threats of tornadoes.
"There were straight-line winds generated by the storm that blew between 60 to 70 miles per hour," said Christine Wielgos, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Paducah, Ky. "There were reports of funnel clouds in Southeast Missouri, but right now we have no confirmation of there being any actual tornadoes."
Wielgos added that, to be sure, the National Weather Service had sent damage-assessment teams to hard-hit locations in Illinois and Kentucky to investigate if tornadoes had touched down.
Cape Girardeau County Emergency Management reported roofs of many homes in the county lost shingles and barns collapsed in rural areas. Trees also were downed across the area, and many Ameren customers lost power Tuesday night.
The storm's strength was evident in Delta, where the wind blew strips of metal and lumber from the roof of Delta One Stop, a grocery and general merchandise store, onto State Street and even into a nearby house.

Commuters injured after train derails at Brisbane railway station
- January 31, 2013
Thirteen passengers, a driver and a guard were on board when the train's front carriage crashed onto the platform and into the toilets about 9.40am (10.40am AEDT).
Fourteen people were injured, including 10 rushed to hospital.
Live powerlines came down on the middle of the train, but the passengers managed to exit from the rear with only minor injuries.
The men's toilets were all but destroyed.
One woman was trapped inside the women's toilets, which partly imploded from the impact.
Mikayla Gede heard the crash from outside the station and raced inside with her friend Emily Benson. They heard a woman trapped inside the toilets crying for help.
"We wrenched the door open," she said.
"The woman got out and said she was okay.
"It was really smashed up in there. The wall had come down in the shape of the front of a train, and it had gone through the male bathroom and into the female."
Ms Benson said she had been about to catch a train on her way to a TAFE college.
"If I had gone 10 minutes earlier I could have been on the platform and died," she said.
Acting Cleveland Fire Station officer Rob Hawxwell was one of the first at the scene about 9.45am (AEST) in the bayside suburb.
"(It has) caused a lot of carnage and damage," he said. "The passengers were very lucky."
Halfway through the search Mr Hawxwell learned his son had been about to go into the station toilets when the train hit.
"My son heard a loud bang and then got out of the station pretty quickly," Mr Hawxwell said. "It wasn't a good message to get."
The passengers were treated at the scene, with 10 taken to hospital as a precaution before being released.
Mr Hawxwell said Queensland Rail would determine whether an electrical fault led to the crash.
The corrugated iron roof of the station building, which was completed only six months ago, was torn to shreds by the impact.
Redlands Mayor Karen Williams said the driver was "in shock''.
"We're very fortunate there haven't been serious injuries,’' she told ABC Radio.
''(It must have been) a very scary event for most of the people on the train.''
Peter Stevens, who lives near the station, said it sounded "like a car smashing into a brick wall".
"It's not something you see every day. It's quiet old Cleveland, on one of the quietest days of the week," he told AAP Superintendent Jim Keogh said the train was approaching the station from the city when it derailed.
The police forensic crash unit is investigating.
Queensland Rail spokeswoman Neva Woolmer said: "We believe there are no serious injuries; however emergency services and Queensland Rail staff are on site."
"The Rail Safety Regulator has been informed.''

Freight train derailment under investigation
Updated
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau is investigating the cause of a freight train derailment in north-eastern South Australia on Thursday.
The derailment at Yunta, about 200 kilometres south-west of Broken Hill, has forced the closure of the track and trains travelling between Sydney and Adelaide are being diverted through Melbourne until early next week.
The train was en route from Perth to Sydney when ten wagons came off the track.
The derailment sparked a small fire which was contained by the Country Fire Service.
The Australian Rail Track Corporation says about 300 metres of track have been damaged.
The bureau's general manager of surface safety investigations, Peter Foley, says it will take about a month to work out what caused the accident.
"We look at the site. We download the data recorders from the locomotive and that tells us what speed the train's been doing, what the power settings were on the locomotive, what the brake settings were, et cetera," he said.
"We talk to the witnesses that are involved. In this case it'll be the train driver obviously.
"We ascertain which was the first wagon to derail, we look at potential mechanisms for that derailment, whether it might have been something on the wagon, or it might have been something in relation to the track and we go through a process whereby we eliminate the possibilities."
