Eastern Railroad Discussion > Minor Derailment in Hamler, OHDate: 01/18/08 07:03 Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: GrampaFrosty Not sure what happened. Maybe the I&O was shoving in the NW Transfer? I didn't think they used that track too much.
Being that close I had to swing by the park... Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/18/08 07:03 by GrampaFrosty.   Date: 01/18/08 08:31 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: dti407 First set...

-Brent Kneebush Defiance, OH Date: 01/18/08 11:53 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: M-636 A few years ago they went on the ground on the SE connector and I&O used the track shown to get two units (SD40-2/GP50) onto the CSX where they picked up a pilot and went to East Hamler and came in on the other end of their mess. I couldn't believe the SD40-2 stayed on those rails.

Mike Date: 01/18/08 15:47 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: farmer Gerald Grain Center (local grain elevator in town) has a lease on the siding and only trains going to them to be loaded are to use the west siding. Six axle power on a very tight curve with bad tie conditions is a derailment waiting to happen.

Tom Date: 01/18/08 19:37 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: RRNUT I don't see any power derailed in the pictures, did they flipped over in the ditch? or in the weeds? Looks to me to be a drainage and tie issue to me.

Date: 01/19/08 14:46 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: chappy3 the local probably took the engine back to delta after they put the rest of the train in the siding.
Date: 01/21/08 00:34 Re: Minor Derailment in Hamler, OH Author: DTIENGR The grain elevator doesn't own the siding. CSX owns it. I&O owns the track from the switch on the I&O main to the switch in the siding.
