Accidents happen. Also on a garden railroad!!!! Garden trains are heavy. A USAT passenger set of 8 streamliner cars weight 52 Kilo or 115 Pounds. Imagine wat happens when this train derails at speed and comes to a sudden stop against a rock!!!! Thank you for coming to my web site! My site is regularly maintained. Always something new to discover. My streamliner set derailed at slow speed on a turnout. See wat hapened. I was lucky that the metal coupling at the USAT car held for a while. I became distracted in by a newspaper article. I came back to reality when i heard a cracking noice. To late!!!! My new hoppers got damaged at the underside of the cars. A hopper derailed at a turnout. This is what I found on the tracks. Copyright © 2005 - Jos Willebrand
