My training instructor worked around the engineer of the train that failed to stop, somehow the engineer still has a job but refused to do any mainline work after that. They used this same video for some of our conductor training regarding the discussion of signals and how you have to stop 400ft before the signal (if possible).

Just because the engineer still has a job doesn't mean the company has placed operating restricting on what job is able work

Wow, even after wrecking two trains, he still is in the railroad business. I would have fired him as soon as the drug test completed

So this is what a buddy of mine had told me… “They (BNSF) fired all 3 on the offending train. The conductor had prior violations and the brakeman failed the post accident drug test. They both stayed fired. The company botched the dismissal process for the hog and were ordered by court to reinstate him as a result. Both guys on the other train were badly injured and couldn't return. That hog is restricted to yard service for the rest of his career. He can still go out on the main within the scope of the yard job's duties. They wouldn't let him submit a statement about what happened. Then he showed up at the arbitration saying he was fired because he was black. And so his job was awarded back.” Not to mention the guy ran away from the wreck, and wasn’t found for hours later..

@kensingtonchapp4819 Жыл бұрын

One quick correction: A yellow over yellow signal doesn't mean "proceed at a restricted speed." On the BNSF It means "proceed prepared to pass the next signal not exceeding 40mph, and be prepared to enter diverging route at the turnout speed." Restricted speed is a specific rule with specific criteria to be met, which ends with "do not exceed 20mph." Hope this helps.

I worked for BNSF mechanical at the time of this crash. I put most of the locomotive consist together of the east bound train that didnt stop the day before. Was always strange to think I was in all those engine 24hrs before the crash. And a side note, the engineer that didn't stop is still working for BNSF today. Met him once and was shocked to find out he was the one and still working.

I think the two trains had too many engines and were way overpowered. In hindsight they only needed 4059 and 4479 to pull both trains.

@dennisb9157 Жыл бұрын

The cement train was at full weight, so even the 4350 hp Dash 9 would not have been sufficient enough. 2 Dash 9s would have been sufficient. The mixed freight could have used only 1 unit, though. Regardless, you are absolutely right. The trains were way overpowered. More than likely the "extras" were being "dropped" at some yards or locations to be used on other trains.

There's no such thing as a combined speed; whether you are going 30, 40, or 90Mph and the other vehicle or train is approaching with an equal speed or not, you are still hitting another object with the same kinetic energy as if it was stationary. The only thing relative here is the speed you are going when you hit that object.

Ok so one thing about this that confuses me, not that a change would’ve prevented this because obviously not, but it just makes no sense to me: why would they have the opposing train park on the mainline while the priority train passes on the siding? If the opposing train has to stop and wait for the priority train anyway, surely it makes far more sense for the opposing train to divert into the siding since it already has to slow to a stop and then accelerate from a stop, so the priority train can continue down the mainline at track speed?

There's no way on this earth that the engineer or conductor whom we see land on the ground on the passenger side of the BNSF, could have survived this crash. if the engine tipped over, it tipped over to its right, smashing the engineer or coductor., and from the photographs, we can see the engine tipped to one side, in the ditch, where the man who jumped from the train, landed.
