A Failed Defect Detector and the Train Derailment at East Palestine
Published at : February 21, 2023
Defect Detector had a bad day and gave multiple hot axle alerts.
Hear the defect messages and find out why the defect detector went haywire.
At the end of the video I will take you inside the detector cabinet and you
can watch the detector as a train passes. There have been no future errant
messages since this video was taken.
Also will give you my thoughts on the horrible Norfolk Southern train
derailment at East Palestine, Ohio. It is so very sad to see events
like this happen. It is not good for the community nor for the railroad
industry.
That was an eastbound NS general merchandise freight train which derailed on
main track 1. As a result of the derailment, 38 rail cars derailed and a fire ensued
that damaged an additional 12 cars. There were 20 total hazardous material cars in
the train consist, 10 of which derailed,
