My training instructor worked around the engineer of the train that failed to stop, somehow the engineer still has a job but refused to do any mainline work after that. They used this same video for some of our conductor training regarding the discussion of signals and how you have to stop 400ft before the signal (if possible).
Just because the engineer still has a job doesn't mean the company has placed operating restricting on what job is able work
Wow, even after wrecking two trains, he still is in the railroad business. I would have fired him as soon as the drug test completed
The Survie to Kismet train collision this the exit to train!
P
So this is what a buddy of mine had told me…
“They (BNSF) fired all 3 on the offending train. The conductor had prior violations and the brakeman failed the post accident drug test. They both stayed fired. The company botched the dismissal process for the hog and were ordered by court to reinstate him as a result. Both guys on the other train were badly injured and couldn't return. That hog is restricted to yard service for the rest of his career. He can still go out on the main within the scope of the yard job's duties. They wouldn't let him submit a statement about what happened. Then he showed up at the arbitration saying he was fired because he was black. And so his job was awarded back.”
Not to mention the guy ran away from the wreck, and wasn’t found for hours later..
One quick correction: A yellow over yellow signal doesn't mean "proceed at a restricted speed." On the BNSF It means "proceed prepared to pass the next signal not exceeding 40mph, and be prepared to enter diverging route at the turnout speed." Restricted speed is a specific rule with specific criteria to be met, which ends with "do not exceed 20mph."
Hope this helps.
Some Legends Say Nrex Is Still A Legend This Day R.I.P NREX 😢🙏
Man, I miss these documentaries. Your editing style is quite smooth and clean, I really like it.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
@griffin rails are you going to making more documentaries when you have the time, because I enjoyed your documentaries?
@@CameraManRailFan Are you going to be making another Engines of BNSF episode, and if you do, can you do the Dash 9's?
I research this once and now it’s my whole for you page
Your work sure has improved and I can’t wait to see what comes next! Also keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
@@CameraManRailFan np
@CameraManRailFan please do the Mosier Oregon oil spill, not to many people remember it
I worked for BNSF mechanical at the time of this crash. I put most of the locomotive consist together of the east bound train that didnt stop the day before. Was always strange to think I was in all those engine 24hrs before the crash. And a side note, the engineer that didn't stop is still working for BNSF today. Met him once and was shocked to find out he was the one and still working.
Where did you met him at I'm just asking
LTEX 2437 was last spotted in La Crosse, Wisconsin on May 30th 2022
You saw it?
I love your documentaries. Please keep it up
Jeez what a crazy story, thanks for sharing! I live in South Louisiana, and they have KCS Southern locomotives.
nice work interesting how you found more photos of the wrecked engines after accident
Heard of the collision. Interesting documentary and content, thanks for sharing!👍
Today is the 18th anniversary of the Kismet train collision. In loving memory of NREX 5473.
I love these train wreck documentary. Keep it up. Btw you should do the Amtrak vs Truck in Nevada. It also happened in June.
Thank you! Depending on my availability, maybe I'll do that one
@@CameraManRailFan If your wondering. I might have some info. Okay. So I know that the Amtrak was the California Zephyr. The truck was a gravel. It rammed between the 4th or 5th car. Causing a fire.
Amazing content, Keep it up!
This was the first video i ever watched on youtube
Good remake man.
Good work man! Keep it up!
Thank you!
That's crazy that some of those were able to be repaired.
Especially the lead units of both trains which I would have guessed were way beyond repair looking at the post crash pictures. The only one that was scrapped was NREX SD50 5473.
There's Fate for you! (Kismet)
I lived nearby and walked the tracks afterwards on more than one wreck.
I work for UPRR on the parallel Fresno sub and in my opinion the fact that the train entered the OS so late PTC would not have prevented this Crash. I'm glad we have it but in this instance this accident was inevitable. Oh FYI I loved your video. How about Goodwell OK or panhandle Texas next. Or even Hoxie Arkansas??
Do you work for union Pacific as the engineer or conducter
Very good this video.
I noticed BNSF ET44C4 3970 at the very start of the video. It was involved in the Panhandle Train Collision back in 2016, and it was used as one of the a DPU units for the East Bound Train.
Nice job!
Thank you!
@Railfan K Train Productions I enjoy your documentaries
@@CameraManRailFan I enjoy your documentaries
@@CameraManRailFan two of our favorite CZcamsrs in one comment
Do you when ep2 of Engines of BNSF might come out? Ep1 was really interesting; I hope to see more eps in the future!
I know, that's what I'm thinking
Bro really said “fuck this shot I’m out”
1065 AGIAN?! Welcome to San Diego 1065.
you already uploaded another one but guessing u made a new version
Nice video on july 21st 2012 a KCS train crash happened in Barton County, Missouri. Maybe a video about it?
UPDATE: 4479 and 4576 has been sold to GECX.
I see we have the same taste in trains. Go Tigers!
Fun fact! 3517 is the only one of the units sold by helm to NS that's still running. All of them were rebuilt or scraped. It's just a lucky one for now.
16 years damn.
Update for NS 3517: it was just retired and will be rebuilt as an SD40-3. It’s new number with be 6431.
You should do the train derailment in Marana Arizona
I didn't know this but this took place on my birthday june 14
this is best video
Thank you!
Nice!
request: 1987 chase MD amtrak collision
Hey I just saw 3517 on the main at horseshoe curve about 3 days ago.
I know, right?!
Can you do the 2004 Macdona,TX train collision 18 years later
1:12 That picture is taken at the memorial center at Cajon Pass.
It would be nice to know the amount of sleep and rest these crews had prior.
Guessing the one engineer didn't have any
Have you ever heard of the head on at opal Mexico? just looking for any cause
Ok so one thing about this that confuses me, not that a change would’ve prevented this because obviously not, but it just makes no sense to me: why would they have the opposing train park on the mainline while the priority train passes on the siding? If the opposing train has to stop and wait for the priority train anyway, surely it makes far more sense for the opposing train to divert into the siding since it already has to slow to a stop and then accelerate from a stop, so the priority train can continue down the mainline at track speed?
There's no such thing as a combined speed; whether you are going 30, 40, or 90Mph and the other vehicle or train is approaching with an equal speed or not, you are still hitting another object with the same kinetic energy as if it was stationary. The only thing relative here is the speed you are going when you hit that object.
Why you don't have Norfolk Southern VenityGT?
3:56 Ain’t no way 💀
Last saw 2437 back at the Galveston storage track on our trip.
Edit: that was a week ago so it may have moved.
That was rough I was the brakeman
I think 2437 is in Claremore, OK now.
I just saw bnsf h2 dash 9 4059 in Lubbock texas here yesterday on a manifest
The M-RICBAR1-13 had a W consit
Oh My God😱
Why were the trains so short?!?
It’s 17 years ago now
6:29 5473 looks like a crushed piece of plastic
lmao facts
Well...he was the oldest of them all.
RIP NREX 5473
Yeah 5473 is the only locomotive that was a total loss
Was this on the news or no?
I'm guessing that the yellow and blue engine was sold to the Portland and Western
Bnsf 2437 is located at Newton, Kansas
6:42 this is the truest statement here. I don't like a lot of technology being put into cars these days, because while it does make them safer in some cases, or more convenient and easy to drive, when they fail, we're left with an operator that has no idea what to do because they've fallen into reliance on these systems.
They showed us the tapes in the program. The diverging train didn't dump it. Just set air.
most railfans don't know the difference and leap to conclusions
Fun fact: This collision is now 18 years ago
Moral lesson: NEVER use Drugs and alcool when you driving a car or a locomotive and PAY ATTENTION in signal. Or you will suffer the cossequences.
Guarantee all crew members involved had very little sleep the day prior!! These railroads are known to work you beyond comprehension!
you got mail!
I think the two trains had too many engines and were way overpowered. In hindsight they only needed 4059 and 4479 to pull both trains.
The cement train was at full weight, so even the 4350 hp Dash 9 would not have been sufficient enough. 2 Dash 9s would have been sufficient. The mixed freight could have used only 1 unit, though. Regardless, you are absolutely right. The trains were way overpowered. More than likely the "extras" were being "dropped" at some yards or locations to be used on other trains.
Crack cocaine?!?! Geez!! Were any charges filed against any of the engineers?
i saw the video when i was little left me on a cliffhanger cus the screen just went black. 8 years later i the story is fineshed
what are the coordinates of the switch the crash happened on?
37°01'43.5"N, 120°04'48.0"W. You can see the patch of drier land where the fire and excavation happened just to the east side of the track.
Do Miriam Nevada Because It's Almost June 24.
Wait why is there another one of these?
I would assume the same reason as to why Thunder remade his Chase, MD collision, as both the originals were out of date, and needed a redo, so we have the remastered version to compare to the original.
@@joshbrony2204 Straight facts
5:27 Denver I see pass my town few times
Has PTC been added yet? I swear, every action its like PTC coulda stopped this....when the next big accident happen, is it gunna be all: PTC coulda prevented this....but now its like 2025 lol.
I did transport a number of crews for CN that were messing with PTC stuff in 2018-2019...but idk what ever came of it.
PTC is now operational on that line and most class 1 lines in the United States. FYI the last ptc extension expired on 12/31/2018. No more extensions have been giving to my knowledge.
Does ptc stop a train before it comes to a red? Or only after it passes thru it? It seems like if its the latter, it would make no difference in this situation
Conrail 6829 was sold to nrex 5473 and scrapped
Either the signal might of malfunction or that was just bad timing
or.....employees just screwed up and did not obey the signals
Hopefully 5473 will have a great time in railroad heaven
The kismet train collision and cactus train collision and derail
Glad most live to this day 6:03
Similar to the Chase Maryland Collision
Do you remember me
I like video you 👍
At 3:00 BOOM
There's no way on this earth that the engineer or conductor whom we see land on the ground on the passenger side of the BNSF, could have survived this crash. if the engine tipped over, it tipped over to its right, smashing the engineer or coductor., and from the photographs, we can see the engine tipped to one side, in the ditch, where the man who jumped from the train, landed.
good point im now going to look at it now
3 crew members per train, somehow all 6 did survived.
Well, you're wrong. I am a locomotive engineer for BNSF and they all survived.
@@kensingtonchapp4819 How could the person who jumped from the engine on the passenger side survive a train engine falling on top of him? There's no way he had enough time to get out of the way of that thing tipping over onto him-especially since he was probably hurt after jumping from the engine and landing the way he did.
@@IwshIcldstrtover thats a damn good question
Rip NREX 5473
It’s sad 😔 that nrex was sapped 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
The animation is almost real.
*engineer* STOP THE TRAIN bnsf system Brake error *engineer*🙃
if i were a worker on one of those trains, and i saw one of the other trains, i would jump off the locomotive and make a break for it.
norfolk southern did all of this because of that one engine1!111 /j
3:05
Ltex/GN 2437 is going north somewhere
me in le situation:
*sees 4059* oh god.YKNOW WHAT- *goes faster and makes it into the siding* YES!
*hears an explosion* oop the cement died-
There's no anniversary. No one's celebrating.
A new version huh?
Indeed
