  • Train derails in Audenshaw with massive emergency service response Emergency services have swarmed an area surrounding a railway line after a train derailed. Police and firefighters are currently in attendance in Sidmouth Street, Audenshaw, Tameside, close to the railway tracks.
    They arrived on the scene before midday today (September 6 2024). Police and firefighters are at the scene, off Sidmouth Street. Network Rail say the freight train 'came off the tracks' at low speed, with nobody injured.The eyewitness said: "I was on a work call and heard an enormous scraping as the whole house began to shake. Spoke with neighbours closer to the line who noted pictures falling from the walls - everyone thought we were having an earthquake."In a statement, Network Rail said: "“At around 11:30 today we received a report that a freight train had come off the tracks at low speed near Denton."The train was carrying aggregates and was headed for Manchester Hope Street. Officers remain at the scene and the line remains closed while the scene is being cleared and investigated. Enquiries are ongoing.

    The holes in the bridge deck are likely the result of the derailment rather than the cause, wagon wheels will slice straight through the thin deck plates

    I have been to numerous Derailments such as this one when I was with The Breakdown & Recovery Teams. Believe it or not, that one is a fairly easy one to put right, no need for Cranes, all done with Jacks and Beams. I would imagine that the BD & R Crew from Wigan Springs Branch would have turned out to this one. Some nice Drone footage there 👍👍

      @@broomeec6834 Yes mate, the large lifting Jacks that they use can lift 120 Ton. You only really ever use Cranes when the Wagons are either capsized or partly capsized or they have ended up partially on top of the Wagon adjacent.

    I filmed the Biomass train that was in front of this one at Denton station and the leading engine failed near to Mossley tunnel, funnily enough it was GBRf 66779 'Evening Star', and amazingly enough it was the freight behind that one also GBRf owned that derailed. That passed through Denton Station minutes after the Biomass had and ironically that was double headed too! I have footage of both freights at Denton station if its of any use to the RAIB. It wasent GBRf's morning.

    • @dieseldragon6756
      @dieseldragon6756 5 місяців тому +1

      My eye is inexpert, but I'd guess the bridge is a total write-off. The wheel flanges have cut through the deck, and in doing so will have done heavy damage to the structural cross-members as well. 🌉💥🚂
      The lack of sleepers on the adjacent line might be by design and not a defect, though. There are several railway spans in my area - All iron/steel, and mostly built in the 19th century - Where fewer sleepers are used but are fixed to the structure, or the rails sit on parallel beams likewise bolted to the bridge. In both cases the bridge structure provides the ballasting and lateral gauge maintenance that sleepers normally provide in regular areas where ballast is employed. 👍

    @dieseldragon6756 5 місяців тому +7

    Thanking goodness this was a freight train and not a passenger one! The damage is severe - That bridge might be a total write-off, given the wheel damage to the deck - But if this had been a pax train leaning at 45° it would be hard to convince passengers *not* to de-train themselves and get into even more trouble by doing so. 😳
    And the workload for the driver (Who was probably working alone, if GBRF are also trying to cut down on staffing) must've been extraordinary; Call signaller for a line block, lay protection at both ends, call various teams to advise of the incident and get appropriate safety measures and facilities put in place...And all in a *very* short space of time! ☎🏃💨🚂⚠
    Some pretty nice drone footage you've got there, too! Please could you do a favour and send a copy to the RAIB if you haven't already done so? It may be of use to them. Thankyou! 😇💯👍
