The RAIB have published a report today about a derailment at Liverpool Street: http://www.raib.gov.uk/cms_resources.cfm?file=/141211_R272014_Liverpool_Street.pdf It makes interesting reading with lots of diagrams and notes about the working of switch-diamonds. The derailment was caused by gauge-spread on a sharply curved switch-diamond. Martin. |

Interesting - thanks for this Martin. I rather think the Driver was on his way home... I have had a few of those off-and-on-agains. If a Train leaves its starting point and reaches its destination it does not really count as a derailment... Best wishes, Howard |
