    It still amazes me that the automatic air brake system used in the US and throughout most of the world does not seem to be in any way failsafe; one blockage in a brake pipe or bleeding of air pressure and you're left with no brakes at all. Contrast this with the UK's older vacuum brake system, which required a continuous vacuum to be applied throughout the train to keep the brakes off, making it almost absolutely failsafe since any leakage of air would destroy the vacuum and apply the brakes. True, it was far from a perfect system; the need to keep the vacuum constant cost power, be it steam pressure in the case of steam locomotives or energy from diesel engines, the length of trains may also be limited by a single loco's ability to maintain a vacuum, and by and large it was primarily passenger vehicles that were vacuum fitted, plus anyone who's read the original Thomas the Tank Engine books can tell you what a pain it can be when a vacuum pipe is damaged. Still, the idea persists that had American freight trains been fitted with a system like vacuum brakes, that are designed to truly fail safe should anything go wrong, this wreck and many others like it likely never would have happened.
    Of course, I'm sure you'll eventually get around to the event that made such failsafe vacuum brakes mandatory in the UK in the first place: The Armagh Runaway Disaster of 12 June, 1889.

    • @Thunderbolt_1000_Siren
      @Thunderbolt_1000_Siren  5 років тому +21

      Nowadays if pressure drops past something like 20psi or lower, full emergency brakes are applied. I've seen videos of such things happening before. My friend Trainfan5202 saw NS 38G get stopped because of that. They also go into emergency if the hose breaks especially if a coupling fails.

    • @Nscalestuff
      @Nscalestuff 5 років тому +6

      If an engineer makes a brake pipe reduction and he doesnt see the pressure go down on the eot, then yes there is a blockage or a kink in an airline. The way fix that? Initiate an emergency brake application from the rear EOT. If the eot has comm loss, then train speed isn't supposed to exceed 30 anyway. There are rules in place for a reason. Descending a grade with a known air problem is a bad decision to start with.

    • @danp2779
      @danp2779 5 років тому +6

      @@Thunderbolt_1000_Siren vacuum or positive pressure, they ultimately work the quite similarly -- as long as the trainline is kept at full pressure (vacuum), the brakes on a car remain off. When the trainline loses pressure (vacuum), the brakes on the cars are applied. Trains do not work like your car, where you apply pressure to the brake pedal to apply pressure to the brake shoes.
      Thing is, this change in trainline pressure takes time (several minutes), though with helpers on the end could be propagated from both ends (if they only had an EOT, it'd need to be sent an emergency signal)
      If you drop the pressure too quickly (about 15-20 psi within 3-5 seconds or so), you'll get an emergency application, where the car valves are thrown "full open" and additionally cars may individually dump trainline pressure to atmosphere to speed up the process.
      Now, the thing is, none of the valves / connections / etc on a train car are perfectly air tight -- they're generally good enough for normal operation, but they'll leak out over the course of a few hours -- and your brakes will quite likely start releasing. So, if NTSB didn't get cleared to start the investigation until the fires were out ... well, you'll end up with random cars in your train having "weak" applications.
      Not knowing anything else about the investigation, I'd imagine some of the cause would be not enough retarders set, or at least not enough set to keep the car brakes to full on.

    • @Wandering1500
      @Wandering1500 5 років тому +3

      This just isn't true. Almost all modern airbrakes failsafe, and in an emergency brake situation they are quicker to apply. Plus even automatic vacuum brakes can fail deadly in certain situations. See it happen.

    Why don't rail cars work like semi trailers - the brakes are activated with a LOSS of air pressure?

    • @1575murray
      @1575murray 5 років тому +18

      They do however the air reservoirs on the cars need to be supplied with air from the compressors located on the locomotives (not like MU cars which have their own compressors). There are no spring emergency brakes as on buses with air brakes as they would not be able to stop the train. Somehow the crew did not know that the air pressure at the rear of the train was inadequate. What happened here was not unlike a passenger train wreck in Washington DC in 1953 where a GG-1 locomotive and its train crashed into the basement of Union Station due to an angle cock being closed in the middle of the train enroute making the brakes in the rear cars inoperative.

    • @smokingbuddy2010
      @smokingbuddy2010 5 років тому +12

      Spring applied parking brakes on EMUs in the UK are held off by main reservoir air pressure. The springs hold the brakes on with the equivalent brake force of a 4 bar brake application. There is one parking brake per wheelset. The parking brake is also a service brake. So an increasing pressure applies the service brake, but when the main res pipe drops below 4 bar the springs within the parking brake actuator apply the brakes. I'm not sure why the U.S cant have similar to UK/European freight train brakes... whatever the case maybe, the brakes should always fail safe, everytime, every eventuality...

    • @oron61
      @oron61 5 років тому +3

      I would think there would by now be a system where some massive springs pushing the shoes down would require a massive amount of pressure to take the brakes off, or a hydraulic system.
      That would mean a leak would, like in the railway series, cause the brakes to slam shut.
      The system being used seems confusing, and I keep getting seemingly contradictory explanations that a kink OR a leak will cause failure.

    • @willhorowitz8806
      @willhorowitz8806 5 років тому +2

      Paul that is how it works, brakes off is 90 psi, emergency 0 psi.

    • @oron61
      @oron61 5 років тому +2

      Then how do runaways happen? If pressure being lost causes all to stop, how would a kink in a hose hold back 90 PSI? And how would a lack of pressure from disconnected pipes let cars roll away like in that railyard incident with the Coors Light tankers?

    Love your railroad incident videos! I have a incident I'd like to suggest if you are able to fit more into your schedule. I live in Northeast Ohio and on October 10th, 2007 there was a tanker derailment near routes 2 and 44, which is also by a Lubrizol oil facility, but I don't believe it was their issue. few of the tankers caught on fire and messed up a lot of track in the area. Honestly, I have no idea what caused this and how it happened, althought I'm sure there is lots of local news stories from then that did explain everything. It's a small accident and didn't lead to any deaths, but it was a bizarre incident knowing things like that don't happen around here. Even if you don't make a video on it, keep up the great work!

    Throughout all of these episodes of wrecks and no matter how long this series grows and how large the channel gets, I still feel that *this* is the scariest episode of the channel mainly because of no music and the chilling radio talk.

    For those wondering about the fp45 engines there are a few of the Santa Fe fp45’s remaining in museums, 90, 92, 93, 95, 97, and 98 are still around and 92 is operational at IRM here in Illinois, and 98 is operational in Southern California railway museum. (don’t know about 98 but I can confirm 92 is operational because I’ve seen it in person)

  • @jacobrzeszewski6527
    @jacobrzeszewski6527 5 років тому +1

    Wow, such a simple change as the ambient audio really changes the dynamics of the video and makes it seem a lot more professional. The somewhat upbeat music in previous videos was always something I felt didn’t quite fit your documentaries. Though people may have criticized you for the music, I also understand the appeal of having music that can build up to the climax of the story. Keep playing with the formula and don’t fall into the cookie cutter video format; that’s how stagnation happens. Remember, quality over quantity. Keep up the good work.
