@@MachRacer4 I've done the math. It's more. You have to account for the headwind and the lack of resistance due to the small contact patch on the railhead. It's closer to 35 hp added and 75 more rpm and 80 foot pounds of torque. It's like a turbocharger that fits into convenient and stylish headgear!

I mean, being from and living in Utah (namely the Salt Lake Valley), and having seen old photos of the bridge rails that went across the GSL, it's more or less of the complacency of there just being 1 bridge with 1 track or 1 bridge, 2 tracks. The hindsight of, "So where do trains go when things go wrong out there?" never occurred to anyone until things went wrong. I will say that even though they probably couldn't get much in the form of alcohol, getting stranded in the Salt Lake Valley isn't a terrible thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mormons and what not, but you do realize how much they contribute to disaster relief and how fast they're sending stuff. If you're in need and in their "back yard", they're even quicker. Just compare where that is to 100 miles either direction East/West from Ogden. It's the difference between putting up with Mormons and being stranded in the middle of the Uintah's to the East or out in Nevada to the West.

I don't think "fun story" is what I'd have called it, but certainly interesting. Basically, that's why timetable separation and such didn't catch on a lot over here. I'm a modern day railwayman, not a historian, so I'm sure to miss details and aspects, but by and large, to my knowledge we were heavily block based from very early on. With "block" meaning a section of track (be it main line, be it station) that can only be occupied by one train at the same time, limited usually by track signals (but also other systems are/were in use like tokens, radio, etc).
@Hyce7772 ай бұрын
We are the same way here; save for sections. Sections mean it's the same "train", as discussed in the video you referenced in another comment. These days blocks are absolute, which is better, and like you guys have always been. But at the time of this wreck... Nope.

@leechowning27125 ай бұрын
The lake, and the desert air. I live not far from Mark, but into the plains... and we have 30-40 degree shifts from daytime max to nighttime minimum. The salt flats, even in mid winter, will get up to low 60s and evaporate off part of the lake through the day... and then at night it recondenses. Something that would have happened that neither the story had, not any of the guys remembered, is that the rails would have cooled faster and caused them to condense water onto them... instant hydro-effects when section 2 went to full reverse.
