A car torr bridge railway accident is the railway accident that occurred at a car torr bridge Scotland Dan freeze and Galloway station ( ).
I it in the progress of the accident
The Scotch Whiskey express of the London use ton 21:00 night train that traveled one hour 50 minutes late on October 2, 1872 departed from Carlisle () at 7:50. This train was organized by two locomotives and vehicle 18. The Sor way junction () of the immediate north side of the car torr bridge station was completely protected with an interlocking device, but station in itself was not protected and never operated the confinement system again. At 7:55, a freight train arrived at the station and started 入換作業. The points of the crossover were operated not a signal mediator by a ground lever and were 300 yards away from the signal tower more. It was said that must have the existing persuasion of the signal by a stop in the local rule, but this time progress existing; showed it. Furthermore, the signal mediator was not informed of 入換作業 and did not receive notice about the service situation of the express train again. I forgot that the express train which the stationmaster of the car torr bridge station was late, and ran had not yet passed a station during a little and let the down line perform a change flight of a freight train through the point of the crossover. Meanwhile express train ran at 40 miles/h (approximately 64km/h), and a stationmaster collided with a freight train. The top locomotive finally turned to the direction where I just just came to and stopped, and the tender was overturned on the platform, and the second locomotive remained on the rail, but three passenger cars after the tender bent over the top. 11 passengers and engineer alone died. Like the many accidents that occurred before than this accident, I should have been able to prevent an accident by "an interlocking device and confinement" ('interlocking and block working').
