    I'm guessing more than one person got fired over this. NS proceeded down a track they didn't have permission to be on yet. CSX putting down a derail and didn't tell anyone. At least the derail did its job!
  • @scpvrr
    So…the story is: the derail did exactly what it was intended to do. It protected the MOW team.
  • @MisatoBestWoman
    So basically this was the result of people not communicating …

    If I were the engineer on that NS train, I would've stopped the train and waited until my conductor got a response from CSX dispatch.

    I love trains. A lot of people might not know this, but they were ones who created the first emergency hospital in the US. They basically built a small hospital in the middle of nowhere to help injured workers.

    Aye I live in Brunswick. I got to see #5349 derailed on its side. Some insight, both CSX and NS work the ports and mills here. It all depends which train comes on which carrier. NS was going to work Logistec Port here that day.

    Thank you for this short video on this derailed Norfolk Southern GP38-2 and the cause of the derailment. (Posted 22 July 2024 at 1307 CDT.)

    "Restricted Speed" is always going to apply on a track like that. The crew were responsible for seeing- and stopping short of- any hazards.
  • The Red Derail @3:25 in the video is actually placed on wrong rail!! In this configuration, it will not derail anything, it will make a lot noise and probably be broken itself. It should be facing same direction,but on the inside of the opposite rail. That setup will roll the flange of the wheel over rail derailing the wheel. This is actually FRA violation for improper derail application. Just an Observation, until the FRA guy shows up!😊

    I would like to see a video on the CSX Locomotive that ran through the house in Niagara NY today
  • @SOU6900
    So who pays to fix the unit in this situation?
  • NS might be trying to make CSX seem like a chad with their spotted safety record
  • @scottfw7169
    There at 3:07, rooftop water tower with built-in bend in its legs is a point of interest.
