Biggest Train Collisions and Mistakes Caught On Camera !

[@arcingcat]

The biggest train wreck was the narrator. Between talking to damn much and calling the engineer the conductor, he wrecked what could have should have been an excellent video.

[@wintersbattleofbands1144]

Not to mention calling a decoupling a derailing at 8:06 and not knowing how the brakes work.

[@xtremenortherner]

Correction: whilst calling a conductor the engineer is a mistake, but not a major one(the conductor IS the main supervisor on a freight train; not just merely to punch tickets as on a passenger train)the engineer's primary function is to operate the main engines.

[@arcingcat]

I was in New York City transit train operator for over 14 years And yes you are right the conductor is in charge of the train. The operation of the train from terminal to terminal is solely done by the train operator and we are responsible for the safety of that ride. The conductor makes sure that the passengers have no problems and any problems they have that’s what they take care of. Conductors do not walk around the train in New York City transit that is the job of the train operator but in reality on the railroads the conductor does walk around the train

Train Conductors do not hit the brakes! They are the administrative captains of the train, the engineer (North America) or driver (most of the world) are the ones to apply the brakes, accelerate, etc…

[@bobjohnson205]

Yep, this guy keeps calling the locomotive engineers or drivers, who are the ones who actually operate the locomotive(s) that pull the train, "train conductors". Yikes!

[@jackx4311]

I dunno about in the US, but in both Britain and Europe, the guards (conductors) have access to a brake control, and can bring the train to a stand by using it.

[@bobjohnson205]

@@jackx4311 Same in North America but they're not the ones in control of the train - that is the engineer in N.A. and the train driver in most other parts of the world.

[@doughunt9621]

The train with the reference is in the UK. We do not have conductors on freight trains, true in Europe as well. In the UK the person who drives the train is the driver, not the engineer. In the UK an engineer is someone who's profession is in engineering.

[@c2757]

"Even though a lot of these videos happened in the past..." (23:40) says the narrator. I think you'll find they ALL happened in the past. Thus far, we aren't able to video things that haven't happened yet!

[@Gordanovich02]

11:37 to be fair the third rail is at 750V year-round. It's just that when there's snow up to the railhead you get to see the 750V.

[@alanevery215]

Quote "Back in the nineties trains weren't even as advanced as they are now"! This narrator is an absolute scholar, thank you so much for your invaluable input!

[@Thelift2013]

4:59 no way, the drifting train is REAL

[@JohnDavies-cn3ro]

It was very real - either one of the cars split the points or, more probably, the switchman threw the blades too soon.

[@tomankt]

@@JohnDavies-cn3ro These points in that video are most probably electrically operated with routed shunting (as I guess from 2+2 dwarf colorlight signals: this means (in ex-USSR countries, where is this video from) one of lights is lunar white and hence there is routed shunting), so there is no possibility to throw it manually (at least to do it quickly). Points are locked while track circuit is occupied, and while track/point section is locked in a route. So, for such an accident, some track circuit failure must occur. Interlocking systems in ex-USSR countries have a feature of "pre-ordering" routes over sections currently locked in a route. If the operator pre-ordered a route (for example for train waiting on the next track), this route will be actually set as soon as necessary sections clear and are released from locking. It's not recommended to use this feature, though, just because such accidents are possible in the case of track circuit failure. But when stations/interlockings are remotely operated by dispatcher (instead of a local station master), this feature is or was used very often.

[@frankgordon8829]

[@RailRoadRex439]

I’ve seen two clips in this video that happened in the area I grew up in. I’ve been to both locations numerous times as a railfan myself.

[@glencrandall7051]

You keep referring to the train conductor. I presume you mean the engineer. In the good old USA the person driving the train is called an Engineer. If it's a passenger train there is a conductor. He/she is the person who looks after the passengers. If it's a freight train there is a conductor. However this person does not drive the train. His/her duty is to handle switches and other duties not associated with actually driving the train.

Conductors are personal who normally are assigned to the interior of passenger train who operate the doors and collect tickets or fares.
