Train Wreck.<\/p>\n

The Leigh Creek Coal train was derailed over the weekend as it headed, fully-laden with coal, to the power station at Port Augusta.<\/p>\n

I got a gig shooting some pictures for the Channel 9 News in Adelaide – a bit like old times, in a roundabout way.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The chaps crewing the train were pretty lucky. The derailment occurred behind the locomotives.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The three kilometre train was broken into three segments. The main damage involved 22 cars which were scattered and concertina-ed.<\/p>\n

The train travels at about 80 kilometres an hour so when disaster strikes the combined weight of all the cars and coal is enormous.<\/p>\n

The momentum would have been very hard to arrest, hence the incredible pile up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I couldn’t resist a landscape photo – it puts the whole thing into perspective<\/p>\n
