Cracked wheel led to 2018 Manitoba train derailment: TSB

Supplied</p><p>Figure 4. The R4 wheel of car ATW 400515 (indicated by the arrow) had been displaced from the axle wheel seat and had moved inboard adjacent to the L4 wheel, coming to rest on the north rail. (Source: TSB)</p><p>TRAIN SAFETY: The Transportation Safety Board is urging the railway industry to beef up its inspection protocols, saying a faulty wheel led to a Manitoba derailment in Jan. 2018 of a train carrying dangerous goods. In an investigation released Wednesday, the TSB said the 80 km/h train derailed because of a crack below the surface of one wheel, which two days prior had tested as too weak under American guidelines for wheel pressure, but was enough for CN RailÕs own rules.</p><p>winnipeg</p>
