Re: Non-revenue train derailment in QV 9/7 #1628764 by ConstanceR46 Thu Sep 07, 2023 10:41 pm It appears both were empty dump gondolas, one Ex-MNCR and one LIRR. Username ConstanceR46 Posts 738 Joined Tue Feb 28, 2017 10:57 pm
Re: Non-revenue train derailment in QV 9/7 #1628779 by Kelly&Kelly Fri Sep 08, 2023 5:30 am Those side-dump hoppers are junk and were when the LIRR bought them. There was a loaded car behind empties, and the truck fell off one of them. This all happened at way less than 15mph; probably about five...
