Here is the Permanente Local train derailed at the Winchester crossing, M.P. 6 on the Vasona Branch. It is a pretty neat thing to watch how they get the wheels back on.

  • The train probably derailed because of the rails in US SUCK!

  • @nukinfuts1000 These rails were made in Germany in the 1930s (I think). They are just incredibly old and the ties and rails were quite weak to begin with.

  • bad camera views. The subject should always be centered.

  • Yeah man. Edit the vid and put a sound track over

  • get a tripod...frig. and talk a hell of a lot less.

  • great video, minus the annoying foamer who never shuts the fuck up

  • Who uses trains anymore. Gas guzzler is the the future.

  • @produKtNZ For example: 5:50 "Woah! did you see that!" - Nah I didn't see anything. I'm legally blind and I'm not on a video streaming website

  • Please SHUT THE FUCK UP. You're an awful commentator and your useless and continual comments and remarks made the video nearly intolerable to watch.

  • @JDEngine2 Amen to that.

  • @AshHill07 ya that's probably true I remember being there and seeing that train.

  • @modeltrainexpert Well just by looking at it odds are high it was 1 of the rails being too far away from the other for the loco to sit on them. So either it was built like it (Highly unlikely since I doubt this line was new and even if it was they would have checked before hand) or the pins holding 1 of the rails in place gave and the rail moved.

  • @whitewingsrich

    I can't remember why it derailed i think I remember hearing it was caused by a flaw in the tracks. I was at the scene of the derailment too.
