| 摘要： | On January 16, 2006, about 12:30 p.m. Central Daylight Time (CDT), CSX Transportation (CSX) northbound Train R60616 derailed on Norfolk Southern Corporations (NS) Alabama Division, Western Region, AGS South District, at milepost (MP) 276. The derailment occurred on the single main track near Cuba, Alabama (AL). It is important to note since October 2005, CSX has been operating six detour trains daily over the NS railroad from New Orleans, Louisiana (LA) to Birmingham, AL. Train R60616 departed Meridian, Mississippi (MS) at 11:55 a.m. with five locomotives and 105 cars (22 hazardous material cars). Approaching Cuba, Train R60616 was operated in dynamic braking mode. However, before the train slack fully adjusted, the locomotive engineer initiated a brake pipe reduction at a recorded speed of 39 miles per hour (mph). The train slowed to about 10 mph before an undesired emergency application of the train air brakes occurred. The conductor dismounted and walked back to inspect the train. The conductor discovered the 32nd through 60th cars had derailed. Ten of the 29 cars derailed contained hazardous material. However, nine of the cars containing hazardous material remained up-right. There were no leaks or injuries because of the derailment. At the time of the accident, it was daylight with clear visibility. The temperature was 61F. The cause of this derailment is train handling. |
