摘要: |
On June 26, 2006, at about 3:25 p.m. a northbound Amtrak passenger train encountered a section of track that was out of alignment on the Canadian Nationals main track at milepost 840.2. As a result of the train traveling over this rough section of track two passengers received moderate injuries and several others received minor injuries. The accident occurred near the town of Arcola in Tangiphoa Parish Louisiana. At the time of the accident the weather was clear and the temperature was 94 degrees. No equipment was derailed or received significant damage. An investigation by the FRA and Canadian National concluded that the accident was caused by a track buckle induced by thermal stress. |
