- UPDATE: This is how the railroad reported this accident to the Federal Railroad Administration - TRAIN 371G103 TRAVELING SOUTH THROUGH THE 1-2 THOROUGHFARE CROSSOVER WHEN THE ELECTRIC SWITCH CROSSOVER WAS OPERATED UNDER THEIR MOVEMENT, DERAILING ALL WHEELS ON LEAD ENGINES KCS 4841 AND THE #1 WHEEL SET ON NS 9683.
When a train derailed at Inman Yard in Atlanta, Georgia, Norfolk Southern called in the specialists. The men who work for RJ Corman have the skills and equipment to get locomotives and rolling stock back on the tracks.

From the sound of that, someone messed up. Who would have been operating that switch?
I just reported a tree down across the tracks near the crossing by my house and Norfolk Southern was on it pronto. Great channel and great reporting!!!!
Wood blocks help protect the rail, weights are on the side of the tractor, not the back.
That track sure is twisted
I told my grandson not to throw that banana peel out the window on the tracks and now look what happened..
@Tyler Durden it caught the crossover and tried to take two different tracks at the same time. thats why the outside rail is all bent to fuck.

I have to say.. I absolutely love your channel. It's probably among the top of informative, underrated and interesting that I've ever watched. Absolutely fascinating stuff you post. I'm a former Railroader myself, but a lifetime and, still railfan. Keep up the fantastic work. I'm going to p.m. you about a small sustaining donation.
I really appreciate that, thank you!
I truly agree.
Outstanding video showing very detailed re railing process. 👍
Looks like the lead unit just picked a point, happens a lot. Thanks much!
I worked for them back about 1998 on MOW equipment . Heard that that crew would be about 2500 an hour if there track loader was brought out to assist with the 2 booms
Great Video. i have worked for RJ Corman. And I ran one of the Sidebooms on wrecks. And yes when you work for RJ, you are on call 24-7.
Thanks for sharing and watching!
We had a local derailment and it was impressive watching them clean it up.
Excellent work and decisive commentary. I really enjoy your work.
Thank you!
"It's all about precision"!
Another nice catch to share with us. It helps to have superior video equipment, a qualified cameraman as well as well-informed narration to make a video as good as this.
Thanks!
Rick Corman started am awesome company and it looks like the kids are carrying on Rick's vision. If you haven't seen it look for the RJ Corman story, it's the one with Rick's picture as the thumbnail. It shows why the RJ Corman Team is so good at what they do and just what goes into the job of re-railing railroad equipment. Too bad Rick had to go so soon. RIP to a good man.
The documentary was really well done and worth watching.
I work for NS in Kentucky, near Cormans main hub. When ever we have a derailment, RJ Corman are the first people that get called. I would say the derailment was caused by either a miss aligned switch, or was heat related
Great video and tutorial V12 of the derailment. RJ CORMANS team are an AMAZING bunch of people that know what they're doing when it comes to railroads!
You continue to provide the best vids with excellent videography, facts, clear voice, etc.
No surprise that the tracks fail or switch points due to 200 ton engines like this one and the rest of the consist pounding the rails 24/7. Just a matter of time... Cheers, Bob
Thank you!
Thank you for covering this, love to all
Thanks for the coverage!!!
EXCELLENT coverage! Complete, thorough and clear!
RJ Corman makes picking up a locomotive look like a kid picking up a toy! Got to clear the tracks fast! No messing around 👍💪🚂
Excellent and timely video. Thanks for the great commentary.
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video. Great videography and good, detailed narration.
Thank you Danny!

Great video thank you . Those crews are really good .From the UK .
I was on jr Corman for a year on the derailment side out of olive branch ms. We were on call 24 7. If a call came in we had to be on the road heading out within an hour. Which means your never more than 45 mins or so from your office. But it was a hell of a job had fun but it was dangerous.
Great capture. Thanks.
thank you for this video
Rerailed that loco in an hour. Crikey, that is fast and efficient. Good job Corman.
I really love to watch ur timelapse videos those are so facinating
I was going to say it looked like the derailment you covered last year I thought it was the same location but wasn’t sure. Great video great information.
My grandson did this one. I told him not to throw that banana peel out the window of the truck onto the tracks and now look what happened..
Great video and catch.
A split switch will more than likely be the cause. That particular switch is radio controlled and has a push button hand pump backup. We use that type switch in stockton and Oakland California.
That would make the most sense, is there a heat kink on the track they don't appear to have been switched to / using?
What a mess! but this site has great person who is giving great information
Excellent video. Really interesting & well done. Thank-you!
Thanks for watching!
Deadly bro! Great vid!
My first time in watching your video. I'm truly impressed by your work, and the hard and dangerous work the rail hands in moving such Tonage. Especially in the fast forward mode. So I just Subcribed to your channel. I truly enjoyed. As a matter of a fact. My Grandpa worked on a track repair. Up in Iowa many many years ago. We were going to visit him and Grandma, from Oklahoma. In perfect timing. It was time for his shift to be over. He started walking down the embankment. With his lunch pale in hand. Then we took him home to Moulton, Iowa. A very fond memory. Indeed !!!
Thanks for sharing and for the kind words!
Interesting video thank you for sharing this with us
Вот как надо снимать подобные репортажи. Поздравляю, отличная работа. Скажите, дроном и камерой управлял один человек или двое?
Amazing! Drone camera amazing too! Wow!👍👍😎🇺🇸 Thanks V12
Thanks for watching!
Always great to see wonderful American ingenuity and know-how.
Very nice video. I like your explanations. They helped. Thanks
Thanks!
Great video!
Well done commentary and video. Not every day you get to witness a derailing and a rerailing all in one day. Your camera work is excellent!
I really appreciate that, thank you!
Good description without the ad nauseum speculation and unproven conclusions. Thumbs up
Really nice to see retail in an hour nice work boys
Great coverage . I am amazed that they move these goliaths as if they're toys. But you can tell anything can go wrong. Dangerous work but it's got to be rewarding.
While I lived in western NC 7-8 years ago, I heard it was in high demand to have railroad repairmen hired. Told major lack of help
Wow,only a few hours.....I would have thought it would take a couple of days! Amazing that those small machines can lift that huge Loco.
Yeesh, I Wonder how so many yard derailments happen. Also, June 4th is my birthday so this happend on my birthday. Ironic!
Well now, Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday. I'll send you a dictionary as a present, so you can look up "ironic". 😊😊
By the looks of it, no one got hurt, the train was in motion very, very, slowly, while switchn to the next track, had it been going faster (all the engines) and a few cars would of derailed, great VIDEO, thanks for sharing this with me, 👌👍
Very interesting footage 👍♐
Well done!
R.J Corman the best.Great video.
Nice sir
I worked for caterpillar in Atlanta from 1981 till 2010 in the repair shop and when one of Coreman’s tractors came in for repair or service , everything stoped in the shop until that machine was repaired and on the lowboy ……..
Those tractors make that train look like a toy! Thanks for sharing!
Also did you take the footage from Marietta Street Overpass? Where did you park?
Thanks! Yep, I was on the overpass. I usually just park in the middle of the bridge. There's a shared lane there.
@@v12productions thank you! I come to Atlanta every so often so I'll be sure to remember this.
Nice video
Very interesting 👍🏼Very interesting, I always wondered how they did it.
Amazing
Mint vid....
R.J. Corman on the job. They are the best.
Nice Camera Great HD !!
Derailments happen from time to time, especially in train yards, so derailments are NOT preventable.
Hey. I’m still foaming over and wishing we had K5LA’s on UP. I’m getting tired of hearing K3LA’s.
You know horsepower hours exist, theres alot of CSX Dash 8s on UP as of rn same as sd70macs
Ew K5LA and K3LAs both sound boring to me. K5LLA and RS3Ls are the best!
That’s amazing those people are legend
Rj Corman made a video about Rick after he died it’s a pretty interesting watch
Fascinating piece. Excellent video and narration. I’m wondering, do they shut down the derailed loco’s prime mover in a situation like this?
Thanks! I believe the two locomotives were shut down, yes.
I can't suggest this enough but if anyone has the chance. Watch the documentary on Mr. Corman. It's on their UA-cam channel.
I agree. That documentary is amazing.
The NS locomotive behind the derailed KCS locomotive was also derailed.
The funny thing is RJ Corman does not ship their stuff by rail
R.J. Korman was an outstanding GUY !! No College Education, but a Brilliant Mind.
I have a question. I saw a switcher serviced on a siding a few years back where they simply lifted the nose and drove the trucks out from under the chassis using power jumped to it from a mobile generator. Since then, I always thought bogies and trucks floated on a big pin that sticks down from the chassis. But now I see them lifting this engine and the bogies stick to the chassis. Is there always some sort of locking mechanism that locks the drive trucks to the chassis pin? Or did they have to add a tool to do this lift?
RJ Corman is a top notch outfit!
That is cool
I always wondered how they did this! Those guys are good. I bet this was pricey!
From the way 4841 was positioned after the derailment, it looks like the front truck tried to go straight while the rear truck tried to traverse the switch but pulled the front truck off the rails. It’s a known cause of derailment nationwide where the trucks of a diesel engine jump the trucks from improper switch work. Just saying it looks like that from how the engine is derailed, but it could be something else. Great report on the incident regardless.
Yeah, I think that's true because of the big kink in the track just after the switch. It probably got pulled as the locomotive derailed.
D8 Pipe boom? They normally travel in packs of say ten. The section of pipe line is welded next to the trench and the pipe booms all lift and place it in the trench at the same time. The modification looks to be rubber pad tracks instead of the single grouser track pads. Nice vid. :o)
YikeS that must hurt for mr KCS/NS duo up front lol
You are correct in your assumption of being on call 24/7for wrecks.i work for a company called Winters Rigging out of western NY. And it is definitely a dangerous job.but it pays good
Gret video. Great explanation. I'm only about an hours drive from R. J. Corman's headquarters.
Funny…..they have a private airstrip, but the property doesn’t connect to the adjacent RailRoad tracks…..😂🤣😂🤣😂
Fantastic footage and great pics on your Flickr. Did you film this with a DSLR? I wonder if the locomotive has derailed because of a defective switch or frog as you call them in USA.
Thanks! I used a mirrorless camera for the timelapse and my camcorder & drone for the rest.
The trainmaster threw the switch under the engines. No injuries.
That is also what i think!
Big oof. Kudos to RJ!
Considering that they didn't move the NS unit at the same time as the third one probably meant it too was derailed. My guess would be that the derailment was caused from picking a switch.
I’ve always wanted to see how a derailment is handled. I assumed it would be a long time to the locomotive back on the tracks.
It looks that at 5:20 the left track has the switch going to the other track; while that right track the switch is not lined good to receive that locomotive. I believe that the front locomotive passed the switch (lined straight on) and than for what reason was changed to the other track while the locomotive was above it.
If I was the engineer I would have said “Ope my bad”
Well I just got on with BNSF as a conductor and we’ve been training for the past few weeks and one thing that we make sure is that when switching like that make sure it’s flush and nothing is in between the two rails or what you’ll have is on half going down one track and the front going down another. This is what I’m seeing signs of
Great video! Looks like a bad derailment
WOW 😯
What lens do you use for stuff like this? Looks great!
I use my Sony NX80 camcorder. It has a 12x optical zoom, plus a bit of digital zoom.
@@v12productions oh, awesome! I always seem to forget that high end camcorders are still a thing haha. Looks great!
Nice camera work…. when I worked for CSX my engineer put two engines on the ground at a Derail in the yard…. I was not happy but it wasn’t my fight and I didn’t get into trouble for this situation…! Of course the engineer got 30 days on the street and enjoyed two consecutive weeks at Disney like he wanted….. I was never taught this method of problem solving between trainmen and trainmasters at the CSX Redi Center…. wonder why?
I live in Atlanta and am always trying to find new railfan locations. Curious where you went in order to get these camera angles of Inman?
There's a bridge on Marietta road, great spot, but a lot of truck traffic makes the use of telephoto w/tripod shaky. There's also some drone work, but I suspect the police frown on that.
@@pcpablo2 Thanks! Yeah, I've thought of that bridge before. Definitely a great spot view-wise, but the heavy truck traffic and narrow-ish side walks with no separation from the roadway concerned me a little
I understand most derails happen in the yards where track isn't maintained so well.
This might be a dum question. But isn't the locomotive just sitting on the trucks or are they attached?
As you know rails can buckle in the heat as well but unlikely at the temp you stated in the video.
Man, them side boom tractors work QUICK.
Out of all units, it had to be a KCS unit. Nooo!
Railroad men refer to the side booms as sidewinders.
RJ/Crain masters/Hulchers are on call 24/7 and can be at any location in 4 hours or less
