Train Derailment In Hamilton Ohio! Train Derails In The City Next To House And Railroad Crossing That Is One Of My Favourites. CSX loaded auto racks and a couple of boxcars derailed between the train station and houses. CSX, Norfolk Southern and Amtrak use these tracks. The train derailed on its way from Indianapolis to Queensgate Yard in Cincinnati at 8:05am. The train was southbound on the CSX, ex Baltimore & Ohio Railroad mainline. It was crossing over from one track to the other and derailed 4 cars. Since it happened at one of my favourite railroad crossings it was easy to film. Luckily there was an empty lot where one of the auto racks wound up and there was an empty lot across the road. The city leased the property to CSX to use for the cleanup with the agreement that it would be restored and reseeded. There were no injuries.
RJ Corman showed up after I filmed the derailment and filled the lot with all kinds of equipment to clean the mess up. I left to film a huge CSX mixed freight just north of the accident site. That train must have emptied the yard son, it was loonnngg!! That train was routed over the Norfolk Southern line that parallels CSX. Both railroads use each others tracks for directional running. After I filmed that train and a couple other ones I returned to the derailment and noticed that RJ Corman was on the scene. You can see their equipment that I filmed after I came back. Crews were trying to get the tracks back into operation before the early morning Amtrak train was due. This video shows both sides of the derailment. The train was still here blocking Martin Luther Kind Drive when I arrived. Power came from Connersville, Indiana to pull the back end of the train back out of the way. The tank car in this video did not derail. It was left coupled to the auto rack car to help support it so that it wouldn't fall over. Once the auto rack car was stabilised the tank car was pulled out of the way. I couldn't see what was pulling it but it was probably a trackhoe. People next to me thought that people were pulling it with a cable. Lol. I was told that the vacant lot used by RJ Corman for their equipment is the future location of the Hamilton Police Department. The old brick train station is just a few hundred feet north of here. It is going to be moved across the tracks and restored soon. Its hard to believe that the old building is strong enough to make the move. The city is talking about the possibility of using it as an Amtrak stop. See my videos about the station.
When I was filming it was raining off and on. At one point in the video my camera was soaked and I couldn't get it to zoom in and it wouldn't shut off. That explains the part where you see the side walk. Filmed May 27, 2022
Don't forget about Chessie and Norfie at the end of the video and please leave a comment!
