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.

Train derails in Barker (with photos)

By Perry Russom 

July 3, 2013Updated Jul 3, 2013 at 6:55 PM EDT

Barker, NY (WBNG Binghamton) Extreme weather caused a train carrying construction and demolition debris to derail just outside of Whitney Point.

The train was on the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway.

The railway reported the train derailed at approximately 6:15 a.m. Tuesday along Route 11.

On Wednesday, crews continued to clean up the six cars that toppled over. Specialized heavy equipment was brought in to pick up the cars.

To reach the freight cars, clean up crews cut through a wooded area about a half of a mile of the nearest road.

A railway's spokeswoman said the track should be back in service by early next week

Train wreck leaves a mess

No serious injuries or spills in Fonda-area derailment; cause still undetermined
Updated 9:51 pm, Thursday, June 27, 2013

Mohawk

A corner of Montgomery County came to a standstill Thursday after a freight train derailment along a busy Mohawk Valley corridor blocked a section of Route 5, affectedAmtrak passenger service and brought a personal visit from Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Two trains coming from opposite directions sideswiped each other for an as yet undetermined reason at about 8 a.m., CSX spokesman Bob Sullivan said.

A conductor and engineer suffered minor injuries at the scene, which left several rail cars carrying dry goods, lumber, garbage and other cargo sheared and crumpled, officials said.

In one case a tanker rammed a boxcar, part of which landed on Route 5.

A hazardous-materials team was at the scene but nothing leaked from the hazardous-material cars, which were still upright, stateDepartment of Environmental Conservation spokesman Rick Georgeson said.

Sullivan said some diesel fuel leaked from the locomotives. Georgeson said it didn't appear that fuel had reached the nearby Mohawk River, though absorbent booms were placed in the river as a precaution. He also said a fuel additive residue car came to rest on its side, but it didn't appear to be leaking.

Montgomery County Sheriff Michael Amato said a switch on the tracks may be to blame for the derailment.

"I'm not sure how they sideswiped. I think there is a change to the other track," he said.

Cuomo, coming in from Utica, stopped at the scene in the late afternoon to survey the damage. Standing a few feet from bags of spilled food on the Route 5 and Martin Road intersection, the governor said the state response includes the DEC and State Police, but said the removal operation is primarily a private one.

He said assumptions shouldn't be made before a cause is found.

Cuomo expressed relief that despite the "tremendous damage" there was no serious injury, and amazement at how the trains can get tossed around.

Scores of CSX workers and contractors using large equipment worked steadily. The sheriff said CSX officials told authorities they hoped to have the train car removed from Route 5 by Thursday night. But the state Department of Transportation will have to examine the pavement before deciding if the road needs repair. At least a couple of dozen people live along the 12-mile stretch of Route 5 from Route 334 in Mohawk to Route 10 in Palatine that was closed off, Amato said Just when the traffic will return to normal was unclear.

A total of about 45 cars and four locomotives derailed, CSX's Sullivan said.

One train was headed east from Avon, Ind., to Selkirk and the other was traveling west from Selkirk to New Castle, Pa., at the time of the accident, Sullivan said. The eastbound train was hauling four locomotives and 126 freight cars, while the westbound train had two locomotives and 83 freight cars.

Amtrak posted an early-evening advisory on its website:

Empire Service trains will run Friday with alternate transportation to points west of Albany with these exceptions:

Train 280 – cancelled between Niagara Falls and Albany; no alternate transportation.

Train 283 – cancelled between Albany and Niagara Falls; no alternate transportation.

Empire Service between New York Penn Station and Albany will operate on a normal Friday schedule. Lake Shore Limited (between Chicago and New York) will run with alternate transportation provided between Buffalo and Albany, the advisory said.

The route sees as many as 60 freight trains a day. Sheriff Amato said trains run through the area at a rate of one every 10 or 15 minutes.

Collapsing Bridge in Calgary Derails Train, Threatens to Submerge Rail Cars in Bow River - June 27 

A train has derailed on a Calgary rail bridge that is collapsing, threatening to send five rail cars carrying a diesel-like substance into the Bow River, acting Fire Chief Ken Uzeloc said Thursday.

Emergency management director Bruce Burrell says the cars are not leaking, but the bridge is failing and slowly sagging into the river.

"The bridge is continuing to drop as we speak, so that distance between the failure point and where the bridge decking is, is starting to open up more," he said.

"It appears that the bridge is failing."

The train derailed after a section of the bridge dropped two feet (60 centimeters) Thursday morning. Emergency management director Bruce Burrell the bridge is not in the water but is slowly sagging into the river.

Each car could have 80,000 pounds (36,000 kilograms) of flammable product, said Uzeloc, adding that he could not specify the liquid. A sixth car on the bridge is an empty oil tanker, he said.

Canadian Pacific spokesman Ed Greenberg said the bridge gave way after most of the eastbound train had crossed.

"The (derailed cars) are all upright," he said. "There are no leaks reported and no injuries reported as a result of the incident."

The bridge, southeast of downtown Calgary, typically sits about 25 feet (7.6 meters) above water level, though water levels remain high after last week's flood.

Emergency crews are working to string a cable through the railcars to secure it to bulldozers on land to prevent the cars from being carried down the river in case the bridge gives way.

Uzeloc said crews then hope to pull another train along a parallel bridge so the cargo can be pumped off and the empty cars can be removed with a crane.

"The thing we want to do is secure the cars. The last thing we want is these cars floating down the river and causing problems downstream," Uzeloc said.

Booms are being deployed down river in case of any spills.

Both the Bow and Elbow rivers that run through Calgary burst their banks when heavy rain pounded southern regions of Alberta last week.

Canadian Pacific said the bridge was inspected by a qualified inspector on Saturday and the track was inspected on Monday. Additional inspections were scheduled.

Officials said it was too early to say whether the structural failure was specifically due to flooding.

High wind derails 47 BNSF cars

6 hours ago  •  

FRIONA, Texas — A rail line in the Texas Panhandle has reopened after storms packing winds strong enough to form a tornado overturned more than 40 BNSF Railway cars.

BNSF spokesman Joe Faust said Tuesday nobody was hurt in the derailment between Friona and Summerfield.

Faust said 47 cars, some empty, derailed before dawn Monday. He said 42 cars ended up on their sides. No cargo spilled from the 71-car train traveling from Clovis, N.M., to Amarillo. BNSF reopened the line at about midnight Monday.

Cleanup ongoing after train carrying road salt derails in Wheatland

Jun. 4, 2013

A train carrying road salt derailed about 9:15 p.m. Monday in the area of 1647 Wheatland Center Road, according to the Monroe County Sheriff's Office. / Tina Yee/Staff Photographer

For more than 110 years, Genesee & Wyoming trains have hauled away the rock salt dug from the earth under Livingston County.

Monday night, one of their salt trains left the tracks.

No one was injured in the derailment, which occurred about 9:15 pm Monday just east of the crossing at Wheatland Center Road in Wheatland.

But 20 hopper cars filled with salt from the American Rock Salt mine in Groveland left the rails. Both the rail line and the road remained closed Tuesday as crews began cleanup.

“We don’t know the cause yet. There should be no impact to the public, and no environmental impact,” said Michael Williams, a spokesman for Genesee & Wyoming Inc., which has offices in the Rochester area but is headquartered in Connecticut.

Cleanup of the salt was proceeding well, Williams said late Tuesday afternoon.

Just 5 to 10 tons of salt had spilled from five of the derailed cars, according to state Department of Environmental Conservation officials at the scene Tuesday.

One hopper can hold 80 to 100 tons of salt.

Oatka Creek is 300 to 400 yards north of the derailment site, far enough away that the salt “does not present a significant environmental concern,” DEC spokeswoman Kristen Davidson said.

She said the hopper cars would have to be emptied before the cars can be removed, with the salt probably loaded into trucks and hauled away.

The 69-car salt train was operated by Rochester & Southern Railroad, a subsidiary of Genesee & Wyoming. Genesee & Wyoming has grown from a short line carrying product from the now-closed salt mine in Retsof into a with 111 railroads on three continents.

Williams said the company had informed customers that the rail line in Wheatland would be blocked by cleanup and repair for about 72 hours.

Monroe County sheriff’s spokesman Cpl. John Helfer said Tuesday afternoon that deputies expected Wheatland Center Road to be closed until at least late Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.

Federal Railroad Administration records show this to be the sixth derailment of a Rochester & Southern train since 2001, with at least two of them involving cars carrying rock salt.

A train towing another train derailed Wednesday at Agege, Lagos, southwest Nigeria.

The incident, which happened at a point where the rail line is damaged, did not result in any casualty as the trains were not conveying passengers.

They were heading toward Ijoko in Ogun State in the morning when the incident happened.

An eyewitness who identified himself as Ola Sunday, said the point where the accident occurred had been bad for long but the authorities of the Nigeria Railway Corporation did not fix it.

Another eyewitness said she heard a loud explosion and later discovered that the sound came from the derailed trains.

Ogden train

Train derails in Ogden

Posted on: 4:54 pm, May 29, 2013, by FOX 13 News

OGDEN – At least five Union Pacific rail cars derailed Wednesday around 8:30 a.m. in Ogden.

The trains derailed at the intersection of Pacific and Patterson avenues in the Union Pacific rail yard.

A few of the rail cars of the train fell on their sides, and neighbors told Fox 13 it sounded like a bomb went off.

Trey Tilman said he and others in the area rushed to see what the commotion was about.

“We just heard some loud noises, and then we just came out, seen this thing was flipped over and whole bunch of people just came running around,” he said. “I don’t know, I just saw a whole bunch of dust when we came out. We thought it was something like crashed or hit it.”

The rail cars were carrying new automobiles from Cheyenne, Wyoming to Salt Lake City.

No one was injured, and the derailment did not block the intersection. The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
