Full news interview with me used in this video: • Train enthusiast talks...
On Labor Day Sept 6th 1943 one of the deadliest wrecks on the Pennsylvania railroad would occur in a familiar spot on the PRR Mainline (present day Amtrak NEC) due to a hotbox on a P70 class coach claiming nearly 80 lives. This video analyses the accident, how it happened, and the legacy it left behind including the later Amtrak 188 incident not to mention even East Palestine.

The truth is that trains are, frankly, the safest way to move hazardous materials. The only other economical option is truck which...I mean one person doesn't use their turn signal and you see how that can go. But Class 1's must be held to a higher standard to make sure these accidents do not happen again. I am still patiently waiting for the NTSB's findings for East Palestine since I'm sure we don't know the whole story regarding it.

yes prob ns was being negligent with the maintenance of their rolling stock

@SadisticSenpai61 10 ай бұрын

We already know it was a hot box that caused the derailment. That much was obvious from the various security footage. Unless it was an old journal box (and I don't know if it's been established if it had roller bearings or not), a hot box is only really likely if Norfolk Southern was extremely deficient with maintaining their rolling stock. And given we do know that NS had been cutting back on maintenance just about everywhere... Tanker cars should be able to handle a violent derailment without leaking, but the added presence of the fire does add some complexity to the situation. After all, the fire would heat the liquids and gasses and cause them to expand which would result in failure of the tanker cars. I'm not entirely sure there's much that could be done to prevent something like that other than quickly removing the cars from the fire's vicinity - which is very difficult to do if the cars are on the ground. There's also the question of whether all the tanker cars were up to modern safety standards. All of the old cars that aren't up to the new standard were required to be replaced by the time the accident happened, but we also know that there are still older non-standard tankers that have continued to be used - usually because the companies that own the cars have not actually gone through all of their stock to double check each tanker car. Add in that a lot of rail stock is leased these days and... Who the duck knows how many dangerous tanker cars are still in service.

My Dad was home on leave, going out for a last night out with his friends before shipping out for Europe. He borrowed his Dad's pickup truck for the night. He didn't know what had happened yet, but he was stuck in the traffic jam as emergency vehicles converged on the crash site. A Police officer came up and told him they needed his truck to transport some of the crash victims. The worst memory of his story was the woman he helped load in the bed of the truck. In his words, "She was missing both legs and screaming for her baby"... Later that night, he went home, parked the blood stained truck in the garage, and went to bed. The next morning he was awakened by his Dad yelling BOBBY, WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY TRUCK??? News didn't travel as fast as it does today, they had no idea he was at that tragic scene the night before...😔

@@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren Kudos on that doorbell video of the Palestine train. Do you think you could have raised the alarm if you had been beside the track and seen that? or do you lack communication? How about a big block of graphite powder laden wax mounted above the bearing that just sits there under normal conditions, but any abnormal heat and it melts, releasing wax and graphite powder into the bearing, of whatever type? And mounted in a position in which a quick glance from anyone trackside can see that the wax has melted. Perhaps this wax could also contain another powder, molybdenum? that can keep lubricating when red hot? What do you think of conspiracy theories about herbicide companies wanting to poison the Amish? What regulations should be added to hazmat trains?

So “friction” bearings are actually called plain bearings or journal bearings. This is a common misconception that was started by timkin. They wanted to convince people that journal bearings were inferior to their new roller bearings (which they admittedly were) so to do this they began referring to journal bearings as friction bearings in their advertising. Eventually the name stuck and people casually began calling them friction bearings.

My late uncle actually prevented the derailment of a high speed passenger train on the Fort Wayne line near Canton, OH back in the late 1950s. He worked in the old yard located at Canton and noticed the telltale smoke. He ran to the nearest phone and called the tower, identified himself, and warned the operator who stopped the train. Uncle John went about his job and didn't think anything more about it until he was told to report to the office one morning. When he got there and saw all the big shots from the Pennsylvania Railroad, he was sure he was getting fired for stopping a priority train. He was instead presented with a letter of commendation. When the affected car was removed from the train and taken to the repair shop, the mechanics saw THAT bearing was on the verge of seizure. The big bosses told my uncle that they shuddered to think how many lives could have been lost had the axle failed at speed.

They emphasized that all of the second series of P70 coaches, mostly numbered in the 3000 series, had been refitted with Timken roller bearings, but the older first series, numbered in the 1000 series, had not. They posited that #1860, being an older car, was not rated for the high speeds on the Congressional and may have been rostered into the consist by mistake.

When a train is in a siding waiting for another train, the head brakeman gets out of the engine and walks across the main line to observe the passing train’s far side. The engineer and conductor stay put and observe the near side. The rear brakeman walks forward inspecting the train in the siding and if there long enough, may end up walking all the way to the head end. It’s called “walking the train.” It’s why I preferred working the head end.

I remember I read a story of a group of kids that watch trains from the trackside. One day, as a freight rolled by, the kids saw that one of the cars had a hotbox. Warning the crew on the caboose by lantern, the train stopped and the crew checked but found nothing. The kids knew they had it, when a railroad detective came to their house. But to their surprise, the detective came to congratulate them instead. The stop had actually cooled the hotbox down enough that the crew and the following hotbox detectors had missed it. It was only when pulling into the yard that the car was again making smoke.

When I started working on the CNW RR at Proviso Yards in 1974 the roller bearing conversion was still on going. There were still brass bearings journal boxes to deal with and the car inspectors had 55 gallon drums of oil placed along the the sides of the departure tracks where outbound trains were made up and inspected. When inspecting the old brass bearing journal boxes, if the reservoir was low on oil they would take a large oil can, fill it with bearing oil, and then replenish the oil inside the journal box. Part of the equipment on every locomotive or caboose was a packing hook. This was a thin steel rod with a loop handle on one end and a hook on the other so the trainman could extract any smoldering or burning cotton wadding without burning his hands. Today, wayside detectors, every 10 to 15 miles or so, warn passing trains of any overheated bearings/wheels. I believe that journal boxes were outlawed long ago and the entire fleet of all types of cars in rail service have been converted to roller bearings.

Hi Thunder! Great video! In regards to the Ohio derailment earlier this year, I saw posts on Facebook on how rails needed to be regulated. As if they are already not. I saw some posts about how the rails were tempered with and conspiracy theories about them. While I may not know a lot about railroading and trains, I do know more than most of the people who were posting and commenting. I have long thought this to be an equipment failure issue. Even thinking that a flattened axle was to blame too. Hopefully, the end finding will tie up all the loose ends.

Cupola is pronounced coo-poe-lah as opposed to cup-poe-lah. They're probably all gone by now even in MOW service but pretty much post 1980 any of the old style friction bearing trucks were converted to roller bearing. These were most easily spotted because in most cases the journal box lids were removed and one could spot the 3 bolt end caps rotating inside though some retained the lids making them indistinguishable from the banned friction bearing.

I lived next to multiple high-speed tracks as a child in the 1950s and 1960s; they were used predominantly for freight. In my earlier years, journal box bogies predominated. We would occasionally observe hot boxes, especially after dark. At times, one of my parents would call it in. (There was a telephone number by our telephone, to contact some authoritaty for our section of PRR tracks. I only knew the number was a serious thing, never for me to dial.) I recall watching with interest as roller bearings increased and predominated.

I notice that you say the train was the Congressional Limited. That train did make the stops you made. However, the train that wrecked was "The Advance Congressional", a train that basically ran non stop from Washington, DC, only stopping in Newark, NJ, then Penn Station in NYC. I also note a few other things: the observation cars you show did not run on the PRR until 1949, and then, on the Broadway Limited and The Spirit of St. Louis, both of whom made their Philadelphia stop at North Philadelphia. You show the PRR EMU cars, called MP-54-E1/6(in 1943, the subclasses were E1 to E3. Their sounds were similar to New York City's IRT Lo-vs, along with Philadelphia's Broad Street Subway cars, except the PRR cars made a grinding sound on start-up, due to their having to step down the overhead wire voltage (11kV, 25 Hz AC)) to 800 VAC for the motors on the cars.

I thoroughly enjoy your videos. The biggest question I have about the East Palestine accident is how, in about twenty miles, did the crew not stop the train? As you said, we'll have the await the findings from the NTSB.
