8 thoughts on “When two trains collide”

  1. This is a real video. My brother a 35yr RR conductor says the parked train was past it’s limit point and was blocking the switch. You can notice the conductor on the park unit jump off it and try to get to safety.
    And to Mike, the video feed stopped at impact, but that is actual metal grinding recorded at the accident after impact.

  2. So let me get this strait. when my computer get the Blue screen of death it means that two trains are hitting?

  3. The hoger was way too far up for that siding. The other engineer clipped him big time. Trains take a while to stop.

  4. To answer a few questions: The cameras on a locomotive first only came on when the engineer used his horn at road crossings. Now they (the cameras) run on a constant loop. The RR will pull the download when there is a accident. It’s all digital as far as the camera goes. At the about the 40 second mark you can see the signal “drop” to red/red. That happens when a train runs “stop” signal. Over the whole system, everybody will get a red signal.

    I hope that this helps…
