Putting a derailed train back on track

[@whotknots]

That track is kinkier than a chain link fence and seeing how everything traveling on it rocked and rolled like a rowboat in a storm it wouldn't come as a surprise if locomotives just jumped off of their own accord!

I am glad that you showed the resolution of the derailment. I was afraid you weren't going to.

Great video, love the play by play is this is all put back on the rails and cleaned up...

Thank You.

[@smittysmitty481]

Cool video! Thanks

[@SWITCHMASHER]

What was the cause of the derailment? Rail spread, overweight car, speed, soggy ground?

I once worked for a company that picked up train derailments - unfortunately, I went on medical leave the first day and never had the opportunity to go back. This was back in the early 1970s, and I'm curious about what the pay is for this kind of thing today? I'm interested in knowing what kind of income I'd be making had I not gotten hurt and stayed with the company.

Wow that locomotive at the 250 mark was swaying badly as it was approaching you... Are the tracks bad in that area?

[@SouthCoastRailVideos]

The track is the old jointed rail that is being replaced as part of the South Coast Rail project. Won’t be bad for long.

[@MrJMS814]

Thats a normal amount of rocking for jointed rail I'd say

[@RailFanRob]

@@MrJMS814 Hmm...I have to say I don't think I've seen one rock that much...I think I'd be holding on tight if I was in that Loco..

[@MrJMS814]

@@RailFanRob It gets way worse than that... This is about as smooth a ride as youll see on jointed track

[@SouthCoastRailVideos]

As long as it’s maintained correctly jointed can be as smooth as welded rail. This specific section shown has always been rough hence the rocking.

[@mshum538]

My lord, put the rerailers down and pull it back on with the rear unit, took way too long….

What does the MBTA have to say about this? It doesn't look good for the South Coast Rail Project.

[@SouthCoastRailVideos]

Because the train hit a tree they’re cancelling the whole project so sad.

Pretty minor.
