The Big Bayou Disaster 30 years Later (Remastered)

On September 22nd 1993 Amtrak's worst accident and one of the worst accidents in American history would occur. An accident set into motion by a series of failures, bad practices, and having both a train and tug boat be in the wrong places at the wrong times.
Note: If my voice sounds a bit down that's because my heart was just not in it during production due to several things going on behind the scenes in my life.

[@LJRailfan-Gamer_07.]

Only time will tell… 3 decades after Amtrak’s worst accident in their history books, going over the site of the crash will give those that heard the story will get chills in their hearts.

[@sadams12345678]

Out of the 129 years that the Sunset Limited has operated (1894 - ) first by Southern Pacific then Amtrak, the train has only gone to Florida for 13 of those years (1993 - 2006). For the remaining 116 years the eastern terminus has been New Orleans.

[@Southerntrainsandmore]

We’ll the Mardi Gras express is in the works reopening mobile to New Orleans so maybe that’s the first step

[@ronclark9724]

Unfortunately Amtrak due to other derailments no longer has the Superliner cars to create three more train sets which would be required to reinstitute the Sunset Limited east of New Orleans. As it is Amtrak barely has enough Superliner cars to sustain the Superliner trains presently. Even with the ongoing Superliner fleet refurbishment, Amtrak has had to pull cars from service during and after the pandemic. The good news is this refurbishment program will finish by the end of 2024 with TWELVE previously wrecked Superliner cars returning to service. But just as soon as Amtrak may be able to return the Sunset Limited to Florida soon, Amtrak suffers another derailment of Superliner cars. Of interest though is Amtrak received TWELVE RFP replies from manufacturers and will be ordering a new fleet of bi-level cars to replace the Superliner fleet during the 2030s very soon... How many cars for the fleet will be revealed very soon...

[@sargentrowell81]

@@ronclark9724 At this point it does seem it's just a waiting game for Amtrak's new fleet to be ordered. At that point I would imagine we see the remaining Superliners serve in the same vain as the former Santa Fe hi-levels. A select few did remain in service as late as 2018 and I could see at least a few superliners being set aside as a back up.

[@alan6832]

I think Thunder, probably following the NTSB, put too much blame on the bridge and train. The only problem with the bridge was that the signal triggers lacked sensitivity, though barge bumpers might have been a worthwhile investment. What I still wonder is did the captain know about the fog? He certainly knew it was dark out and the pilot knew about the fog, and both should have decided to stop in the foggy dark, knowing they were ill equipped and ill trained to operate in those conditions. Did the pilot have the authority to stop? Did the Captain? or were they both under too much pressure from owners to go regardless, like the Captain of El Faro, who sailed into a hurricane after having been fired for playing it safe and being slow, as have many captains, and truck drivers etc. Owners should be held responsible for tight schedules. Though the training and equipment requirements may also be necessary when there may be no place to stop when conditions deteriorate, in this case there was.

[@andrewmazzarini2742]

Masterful revisiting. What caught my attention is that this happened during the brief window in which the Sunset Limited extended to Miami instead of Orlando. Feel like that's relatively obscure knowledge about the history of the route

[@Driftking0311]

What a tragedy, Big Bayou wreck was the worst accident. Though I couldn't imagine what the passengers must've felt when they woke up and smelled smoke. It was horrible, really horrible. I remember seeing recent documentaries and noting the investigation into the cause of the incident. I believe this incident could have been avoided,but it happened, nonetheless.

Hey, I used to work for CSX. Amtrak has started qualifying engineers and crew to go from New Orleans to Mobile and back on this route. They are in talks about opening the service in 2024 or 2025.

[@thud9797]

True, think the only hold up now is finishing a loading platform in Mobile. They did some test runs in 2023 and unfortunately had two collisions with one fatality. People have to get used to these fast trains coming through there again.

[@billkittleman9631]

Many of us outside of that industry often hear of rail freight companies cutting corners on maintenance projects or even forgoing them altogether - is that any sort of myth or is it a valid depiction? And in this particular case would CSX have necessarily born the responsibility of having this “incomplete” Canot bridge appropriately retrofitted?

Even if the Sunset Limited had not been delayed and had crossed the bridge before the barge hit it, the next train through would have suffered the same fate.

[@thud9797]

Well there wouldn't have been 47 fatalities and likely they would have gotten word to dispatch to stop the trains by then. This was just unfortunate that the barge hit just minutes before the Amtrak was coming through.

Amazing video Thunder! I’m glad you remade this, because there are many more details that you missed the first time you made it. Great job with the simulation too. I could never put in that much effort into something like that. I have a few questions. Do you create the maps for simulating derailments yourself or do you find places to download them from. Also, do you think you could make a documentary on the 1980 Cima Hill runaway? I am making one on it right now, but I don’t have many photos and limited information about the crash, and I have a feeling that your video would be better (especially because you can simulate the runaway which I most likely would not include in my video because of the amount of time I would need to create the map).

It is inexcusable that no proper radar training nor the existence of a compass and proper maps (if you have radar how do you not have these things?!?!) were available to the barge pilot, especially when such a course shift to the Big Bayou Canot was that easy to do off the Mobile River. Even the existence of some navigational lights on the bridge could have helped avoid tragedy.
