摘要: |
An eastbound CSX mixed freight derailed 20 cars on 12-15-2006 at 2:15 am. The derailment occurred near Marriottsvitle Maryland, Carroll County at CSX milepost 26.1 on the Old Main Line subdivision. Of the 20 cars derailed, 4 were tank cars. There was major concern with the PLMX 135248, a tank car loaded with Anhydrous Ammonia. This car came to rest in an inverted position, therefore a determination could not be made as to possible leakage and extent of damage until the car was righted by the salvage crew. The Carroll County Emergency Management team on scene commanders then initiated a precautionary evacuation for a one mile radius. The estimated damages for track and equipment was set at $426,387 - not to include labor. The probable cause of the derailment was determined to be dragging brake rigging equipment from the A-end truck of the 28th car in the consist. |
