The Bromsgrove Derailment | Jakeso

Today we discuss The Bromsgrove Derailment which occured in March 2020 following the announcement of the Covid-19 Pandemic and the National Lockdown which was going to apply the next day, which indirectly resulted in a DB Cargo Class 66 colliding with a buffer stop in a siding which lead to a derailment and a collision with a Cross Country Class 170.
We look at the causes and the concequences of this incident.

The freight train driver should have immediately made a GMSR REC call before getting out of his cab to investigate the damage.

We were told hitting red on GSMR puts signals back to red , may have slowed Class 170.if seen signal go back to danger

I suggest do the Salisbury Tunnel Crash!

[@chrishines6048]

If you think about it he was technically using his phone while driving/in charge of a motor vehicle and a class 66 is technically a motor vehicle

You arent meant to be on your phone while in the cab of a loco anyway

[@chrishines6048]

The person who texted was also responsible, they should’ve waited
