Aftermath of the collision of NS 143 and NS 25A (Please read the description)

I see NS is trying the new semi-permanent couplers like the Amtrak Acelas... glad no one got hurt

[@joshuasz1279]

I know the signals in this area were just updated to the new "PGR" system but I don't know if it was active yet in this area but if it was it should have prevented something like this from happening. but this area is a chock point for both NS & CSX were both of the CSX two main and the one from the West have to combine with NS main with only 2 mains and I believe NS & CSX should at lest bring back a third main in this area like it was many years ago to cut down on the bottle neck through Hamilton. Some of the old Cincinnati Bell prints I have seen shows there us to be 4 mains going into the old train yard and roundhouse with sidings for the paper plants. yest the old right away for the 2 western mains is now 3rd ST (SR-127) but North 5th St were the sidings for the old paper plant being torn down is still there and I can see with some realignment being able to fit 3 Mains in the same right-away with little investment and down time and improve the safety of the rail interchange. but the location I do see a large investment in is the bridge crossing North across the old canal at the power plant and the river crossing before CSX & NS split again in New Miami if they want to keep it 3 mains all the way.

Hi Joshua; Could you explain what the PGR system is about. Am pretty sure that we don't have it is Canada. Thanks bro.

Very overjoyed that the pressure tank cars held!! Procar is canadian brand name but tank car itself could have been fabricated in East Chicago, Indiana. Texas or one other state - in addition to canadian manufacture. About 1990, Procor should have been designated for the pressure car builds and east chicago for the 111 atmos. tank cars.

[@maxshelltrack6131]

How the hell did that happen.

[@butlerstrailfan886]

Max Shelltrack it was late at night and very foggy out. When 25A took the signal at the 29.0 the engineer was just flat out wrong. The conductor argued that it was a slow approach while the engineer thought it was a slow clear. When they came around the corner to take the Mosler Holdout signal it was of course a stop indication and the end of NS143 was just beyond the signal. There was no way they could stop in time.

[@brilliantman79]

I bet someone was fired over this. Glad no one got hurt.
