A train derailed in Scotland, UK, what caused the derailment?

Hello, glad for your question, here are my personal opinions:

1. Let's start with the analysis of the incident

On August 12, on the road from Aberdeenshire to Haven in Scotland, England, a train derailed seriously, causing 3 deaths and 6 hospitalizations, a total of 12 people on the train, including 6 passengers and 6 staff, a large amount of smoke came from the scene, and 30 rescue vehicles have rushed to the scene. Eyewitnesses claimedThe train fell off the embankment after encountering a landslideHeavy rainfall the night before.

2. According to eyewitnesses, it isThe specific reasons for the derailment caused by external factors will have to wait for the official announcement. So let's analyze the reasons why it is easy to cause train derailment?

1) Damage to the track or line. The track is uneven, one side is high and the other is short, and the track is broken and collapsed due to weather disasters and other reasons, resulting in the deformation of the track gauge and deviation from the standard value, thus deviating from the track.

The lateral force of the train is too large or the vertical force is reduced. For example, in the turning place, the outside of the track is generally heightened, so that under the action of gravity, an inward force on the outside is generated, so as to balance the centrifugal force generated by the turn, and this process has speed requirements. If the wheels are abnormal or the train is speeding in some places, it will cause insufficient friction and derailment.

There are obstacles on the tracks or trains collide. This is also the possible cause of the accident, a sudden landslide hit the train directly, causing a derailment.

The first two points are not easy to happen, because the train will be overhauled every time it runs, while the EMU train is overhauled once a day, and the track is also frequently maintained, including periodic comprehensive maintenance, sporadic emergency maintenance and inspection and maintenance. The maintenance vehicle has basically been running, and the road section has also been manually inspected and repaired, so the safety of the track is also very guaranteed. In the event of an accident, it is basically an emergency, and some irresistible natural disasters, such as mudslides, etc., make the damage not too late to be found or repaired in time.

The derailment was caused by flooding and landslides caused by heavy rainfalls, and the paralysis of transportation had a great impact on the country.

According to reports, the initial cause should be heavy rain, flash floods, which caused a landslide that caused the train derailment in Scotland, and the more precise cause is yet to be investigated.

The train derailed in Scotland due to overnight torrential rains and thunderstorms that caused flooding and landslides. Therefore, it is said that the derailment of this train is inseparable from the landslide.

According to insiders in the railway industry, the cause of the incident may be the heavy rain and landslides in the local area for many days, which led to the accident.

The train derailment in England was caused by heavy rain and thunderstorms that caused flooding in Scotland, and caused the traffic to be interrupted in some sections.

Heavy rains caused flooding in parts of Scotland in the United Kingdom, causing landslides. The train involved in the accident happened to be derailed by a landslide.

A train derailment in Scotland, England, caused by a landslide caused by heavy rain, has killed one driver, train conductor and flight attendant, a total of three deaths!

In the process of train operation, the braking system failed, so there was a derailment, and caused a lot of **.

It was caused by a landslide due to which the train stopped and collided with another landslide, causing the train to derail.

On the morning of the 12th local time, a train in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, unexpectedly derailed while driving, killing 3 people and sending 6 people to hospital for treatment so far. According to railway industry sources, the cause of the accident may have been a landslide caused by heavy rains for several days.

According to foreign media reports, on the 12th local time,A passenger train in Scotland, England, derailed, killing three people on the spot, 6 others were injured. After the accident, Queen Elizabeth II issued a message of condolence, saying that the news "made me very sad".

The accident occurred in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and has so far killed three people, including the driver, the conductor and one passenger. Six other injured have been taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Heavy rains and thunderstorms were reported causing flooding in Scotland and disrupting traffic on some stretches of road. It is said that the landslide may have caused the train derailment. However, the investigation into the cause of the accident is still ongoing.

The train derailment in Scotland was caused by the presence of unidentified objects on the local tracks, which hindered the train's operation.

It was mainly due to landslides caused by heavy rainfalls, which caused train derailments.

According to authoritative sources, the cause of the accident may have been a landslide caused by heavy rains for several days. It is reported that the accident derailed during the drive, resulting in 3 deaths so far, and 6 people have been sent to the hospital for treatment.

A train derailment in Scotland, England is very serious, the scene is a mess, the train driver and the conductor have died, the accident result is sad!

The train derailment is a relatively serious matter, many people have died at the scene, most of them have been injured, and the relevant departments have been involved in the investigation.

The train derailment in Scotland is very serious, killing three people and injuring six others.

First of all, the regular inspection of the train is not in place, and the potential safety hazards are not carefully discovered in the process of inspection.

The second is that the driver did not notice the abnormality of the train during the driving process, and the improper operation led to this tragedy.

Today's heavy rains and thunderstorms have caused flooding and landslides in Scotland, natural disasters have affected transport and communications, and the cause of the train derailment is likely to be caused by weather.

Heavy rains continued for several days in Scotland, UK, causing floods and landslides in many places. The accident train was passing through a landslide and hit the riverbed, causing the derailment.

Orbital aging. Due to the influence of bad weather and the long use time of the track, the maintenance is not large, and there is aging. So there was a derailment when the train reached that section.

Extreme weather, the area has been raining for a month, which is prone to geological disasters that lead to train derailments.

Train derailments in Scotland have been a growing concern, with previous train derailments in the UK, London in 2002 and train derailments in 2016.

Similar incidents have occurred before, and we should learn from this train derailment and continue to improve ourselves to ensure people's safety.

Yes, the development of science and technology will inevitably make mistakes, and the train derailment is an event with a very small probability of occurring, and the relevant departments have begun to investigate.

Some. Train derailments are a common phenomenon in rail transportation. There were several train derailments in England in the 18th century.

Train accidents are less likely, but not impossible.

Traffic accidents are more likely to occur, such as derailments, collisions between cars and trains, and some people taking pictures on the tracks, which is one of the reasons why trains are prone to derailment.

First of all, there will be a derailment of this train in Scotland, and then there may be obstacles on the track that cannot be avoided in time.

The local ** immediately took relevant rescue work, after rescue, there were three deaths at the scene, and the Scottish Prime Minister also expressed great sadness when he knew about the situation.

After the Scottish train derailment, the local ** said that they would pay close attention and quickly dispatched relevant departments to rescue them.

McAlliss said an accident investigation into the train derailment would be carried out, led by the Scottish Inspectorate-General Inspectorate, to investigate the cause of the train derailment.

** Immediate rescue measures were taken by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. I am very saddened by this accident. It may be that the train has encountered a landslide, so the train derailed.
