Lovely video and well researched , Pinwherry station is also famous for its ghost story of a girl who jumped to her death from a bridge and her ghost has been seen often on the bridge by passing train drivers who nicknamed her "Annie".
Such a tragic event, the Pinwherry derailment of 1928 really highlights the vulnerabilities of early railway systems, especially in areas prone to natural disasters like landslips. The documentary does a great job of detailing the incident and its immediate aftermath, but I think it could have explored more on how this accident influenced future railway safety protocols in Scotland and across the UK. Were there significant changes in monitoring or engineering practices that directly resulted from this derailment?

Great video and very underrated channel
Love the alternative theory. Just one distraction can be an element in the chain of events leading to a disaster. Enjoyed the story!
The late Robert Adley MP mentioned the entire train landed on top of the engine, twenty five trucks and both driver and fireman stood no chance.
