    This was not a "Train Crash" but a derailment .Two completely different events.

    So dramatic with the word, crash. It derailed, stayed upright and knocked the wall.

    Wonder if the whole embankment is suspect? Due to do a rail tour along here next month. Fingers crossed in more ways than one!

    Very irritating, but it’s NOT a crash, but simply a derailment. Network Rail will surely give a full account of what happened.

    This looks like a wide culvert bridge needs to be put into place so the water can flow freely under the track!

      Unfortunately one side is tidal the other not.The tidal side at spring tide is I would estimate at least 20ft above the land behind.The landward side is part of the old estuary well below high tide level.It has been pumped since the railway was built.A culvert would not work.

    Why do you call this a "crash"? The track was damaged, the train derailed, and it hit a glancing blow to the wall.

    With so much water the other side of the track it looks as if the whole length might be vulnerable. The lot needs draining with culverts first and then test the subsoil beneath the ballast for the 1/2 mile length.

    • @andycruickshank1671
      @andycruickshank1671 10 месяцев назад +1

      The whole length has been doing it's job for 150 years or so.A little more close maintenance maybe needed but not a lot more.

      @@rodneycooperLMSCoach The water needs to be pumped as the landward side is much lower than the seaward side.A culvert would flood the land behind at higher tides.A higher volume pumping system in secure solid pipes is what is needed.If you look closely on the video you will see the original ,or at least the pipe that did the job 50 years ago,as the middle one of the three pipes.It is much deeper under the track than the more recent ones.

      @@rodneycooperLMSCoach You seem to have missed the point.The railway acts as a barrier between the sea and the land behind stopping that land becoming part of the foreshore.However the water has to be pumped out when it gets to high. If you look on the video you can see the standing water on the landward side of the embankment.

      @@andycruickshank1671 Yes I can see the standing water on the landward side but making the Railway a barrier to flooding makes it vulnerable. From what you say then a defence such as at Dawlish would be required as well.
