摘要: About 6:33 p.m. central daylight time on April 6, 2004, northbound National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) train No. 58 (city of New Orleans), derailed on Canadian National Railway Company railroad track near Flora, Mississippi. The entire train, consisting of one locomotive, one baggage car, and eight passenger cars, derailed near milepost 196.5 while traveling about 78 mph. The train was carrying 61 passengers and 12 Amtrak employees. The derailment resulted in 1 fatality, 3 serious injuries, and 43 minor injuries. The equipment costs associated with the accident totaled about $7 million. As a result of its investigation of the accident, the Safety Board identified the following safety issues: the Canadian National Railway Company's continuous welded rail maintenance and inspection procedures and standards, Amtrak's emergency response training of its employees, and the Federal Railroad Administration's oversight of continuous welded rail maintenance programs and Amtrak's emergency response training of its employees. As a result of its investigation of this accident, the Safety Board makes safety recommendations to the Federal Railroad Administration, the Canadian National Railway Company, and Amtrak.
