| 摘要： | On October 1, 2007, at 11:20 p.m. CDT, northbound Norfolk Southern (NS) Train 198A701 consisting of two locomotives, NS 6654 and NS 6560, and 47 cars struck the side of standing Alabama Gulf Coast (AGR) Train 211 North consisting of two locomotives, CEFX 3917 and IORY 5003, and 75 cars. The accident occurred on the AGR interlocking at Boligee, Alabama (AL), NS milepost (MP) 242.5 on the NS AGS South Subdivision of the Alabama Division. The collision resulted in the derailment of five freight cars in AGR Train 211 North. No freight cars or locomotives on NS Train 198A701 were derailed. There were no injuries sustained by the NS or AGR train crew members. Three of the five derailed freight cars contained residue hazardous materials, but there was no release of product and no evacuation of local residents. However, the fuel tank on lead locomotive NS 6654 was ruptured and spilled about 2,000 gallons of no. 2 diesel fuel. Damages are estimated at $108,500 for equipment and $450,200 for track and signal. The weather at the time of the accident was clear and dark with a temperature of 60F. The probable cause of the accident was the failure of the NS train crew to comply with a stop signal indication at the AGR Interlocking signal. |
