    I’ve noticed that no one has even reported on the condition of the train conductor or any staff on board the train, deceased or survived. Which is odd, you’d think that the name of the conductor and anything he said or reported leading up to the accedent would be all over the news. But they haven’t given any names or stats on any on board staff which would help everyone to understand. It’s extremely strange not there hasn’t been any public reports of grieving family of said conductor or any other train staff. Just something that perplexed me. In most disasters, even if it’s a solo plane crash, you hear the names of those on board somewhere.

      It's highly likely this whole event was a psyop, I've seen videos of people going thru the derailment area showing there's no damage or environmental effects - I've seen others claiming to show damage. All I know is that the city of East Palestine was planning to launch a MyID digital health service for folks in the area to sign up for right when the derailment occurred - and a giant chemical explosion narrative blasting all over the media for days on end just may have persuaded significantly more people to sign up for it than would have otherwise.
      By now, most people are aware of the NWO agendas, with digital health monitoring being a key player in their plans for control; and whether or not the derailment was planned or not, whether it was real or not, there is an obvious psyop going on around the event. Fear mongering has been rampant in the narrative about it, quite similar to the fear mongering we witnessed during some other recent "health crisis" that was also perpetrated to run a huge psyop for the NWO agenda. Trains crash all the time - there's thousands that occur in North America annually, with a good portion of those trains carrying toxic chemicals - but we never hear about those (at least not to this extent). Igniting this sort of chemical is the proper procedure for an event such as this, and if it was real, it obviously isn't ideal for it to happen - but it's nowhere near the level of disaster the media is claiming it to be. I even heard Trump is going down there, for goodness sakes!
      They don't harp on stories such as these for days on end across the media platforms unless there is an agenda behind it; and that agenda appears to be to cause a health crisis panic to get folks to sign up for the digital health monitoring program - perhaps East Palestine is a test run in the bigger scheme of the government planning to launch it on a much larger scale. It's a likely scenario, especially when you consider the fact that the covie psyop's agenda was to install nanotech within people to be able to track their health, vitals, location, etc. If you don't yet know that the covid shots injected nanotech into people that can be picked up via any Bluetooth scanning app on any Android phone (sorry, I don't know if iPhones work for it), I implore you to look into the research articles:
      -"Project Bluetooth Experience X" by, G. Sarlangue, J. Devilliger, P. Trillaud, S. Fauchet, L. Taillasson, & G. Cateau (a video describing the paper can be found at bitchute.com/video/4XmDOAeNMNBS/ )
      -Dr. Campra's Final Technical Report
      I also implore you to test out the Bluetooth phenomenon out for yourself. The injected will give off MAC addresses (12-digit identifier codes) that are unnamed, while normal Bluetooth devices will show the name of the device. The best test is to bring an injected individual to a secluded area devoid of any devices that may interfere with the test - the injected will give off a signal (or more than one if they got multiple shots) in the absence of any other devices that can explain the signal. You can also sit in a public area and monitor the Bluetooth scanner app, and watch as signals appear, get stronger, and then disappear as a person approaches and then leaves. Busy stores will result in lists of hundreds of unnamed Bluetooth signals (as will pharmacies that offer the shots - showing that the vials also give off the Bluetooth signals).
      So, as you can see, one of the major purposes of the plandem(on)ic was to put tracking software into people who willingly got the shots. One of the major purposes of this software, besides tracking and tracing, is to monitor the individual's health status. This train event seems to have a similar goal, as to convince folks to get health-tracking devices to help "protect them against the chemicals." The tracking of public health has nefarious purposes, and this psyop will at the least, convince a large portion of people to accept the monitoring. I know this "went off the rails," (ha) but these media psyops all have a central goal in mind - and when you begin to look into these events individually, you'll start to see the overlapping patterns.
      Anyway, thanks for reading. And have a blessed day! 🌻

    • @throttlebottle5906
      @throttlebottle5906 Рік тому +3

      a failed bearing does just that and there's zero way to know it happened without passing a defect detector or someone spotting it by pure chance. Anyway the problem then becomes, will they report it immediately and will it get relayed forward?
      very likely NO, unless it's some on duty rail crew and even then, if it's already glowing orange it's far too late, as it hits emergency it applies brakes fully and rapidly gets hotter yet. A brake stuck generally clearances itself after a smoke and spark show, but it can still go bad from cooking the bearing, There's many scenarios it could be, but I say failed bearing and too long a distance between detectors, a mile could be too far.
      So it would pretty much be at auto-ignition and combustion temperatures of all surrounding materials and radiated heat, with dripping molten iron slag would ignite the wooden ties and spread from there.
      same happens with a tractor trailer and brake/bearing wheel fire, if they stop if quickly goes into a huge flare up spreading fire. they generally don't stop until the Fire Department is alerted and ready to extinguish, then they stop right near them.

    • @TheNemosdaddy

      And in 4 miles that train traveling at 50 mph there was no way for anyone to know or it to stop in time. Also it was an overheated bearing not wheel and the bearing burned itself off. It can happen in a matter of miles at track speed. They're actually quite rare anymore, and this is probably a case of a perfect storm of events and no real way to have prevented it.

    Haven't been there in ages but that section of track was ribbon rail for as long as I can remember. I'm sure there was a
    bad wheel on one of the cars axles and not a bad wheel bearing. A worn flange for instance could allow the wheel to

      @@hestheMaster There are two videos showing the train passing with the truck on a specific car giving off massive sparks and fire. That took place some distance and time before the derailment. That railcar then triggered a warning transmitted to the crew. I do not have info on the timeframe that elapsed between when the video caught the wheels/axles on fire and when the detector triggered the warning. I do not know if the crew began braking or slowing down. From what I have gathered the train then went into emergency braking that was not crew initiated. I'm not even sure if the video(s) were shot before or after the train passed over the detectors. While further investigations will shed more light on the subject, and while it isn't wise to jump to significant conclusions, I would say based on years of experience that a worn flange was not the culprit here.

    So, the defect detector found the problem yet the accident still happened. Sounds like a problem in the defect detecting process. Apparently the train went into emergency without crew intervention but it was too late to late to prevent the disaster. Was the problem too advanced by the time it hit the defect detector? Are defect detectors just imperfect tools that we shouldn't expect to catch 100 percent of the problems? If so, is there any way to keeping this from happening again? Do we need to have more defect detectors and have them placed closer together?

      I have personally been on derailments where the bearing failed within 5-10 miles after passing a Hot box detector and never getting a failure message. The newest ones record the temp and this bearing WAS trending hot (i have inside information being local to the area and a carman), but not to the threshold to trigger a detection until it was already failing and too late to get the train stopped in time. They may recommend that they reduce the temp at which a hot box is triggered by the detectors. It may just be one of those perfect storm situations where there was truly no way to prevent this in an economical sense. We'll have to await the final report to see the conclusions and the recommendations to the FRA from the NTSB.

    In the drone videos taken just after the crash, there were a few cars burning well behind the main wreck, and a line of small fires burning along the right of way. I haven't seen mention of either, and the excellent drone shots in this video show only the main event.
    I wonder if the failing equipment somehow punctured one or more of the tankers while it was still mostly on the track, so that some ignition source lit it off and caught the equipment above it on fire. The long line of fire was unusual in a wreck like this.
    I also wonder what role the emergency brake application had in putting everything on the ground.

      No, the fires were from the fire department spraying then of thousands of gallons on the fire before knowing what was in the tank cars. Causing a river of fire that then burned a bunch of cars not even derailed. I suspect there will be a massive liability to the incident commander who ordered them to start hosing everything down before knowing exactly what was in those cars.
