Description

A video biography of how train derailments were traditionally cleaned up in Canada.

From the early 1900's until approximately 2010 this work was performed by mechanical staff stationed at strategic terminals across the system.

These crews also re-railed cars and locomotives and as well changed wheels and disabled locomotives.

This work is now all contracted out.

Ed's Video covers 1h 40 mines from 5 derailments and 1 locomotive wheel change and will also be available on request for a small fee

First showing will be at 10am, Second showing at 2 pm
