Posted by Train Dude on Wed Oct 18 07:56:02 2023, in response to Third rail power loss - What happens usually?, posted by JRR4 on Tue Oct 17 18:30:57 2023. Trains will never be knowingly sent into a track segment with no 3rd rail power.There are a myriad of reasons for this. The first is for safety. Should a train enter an area with an unpowered 3rd rail, it will bridge power from an active 3rd rail. If there is a short, it will cause more damage. If people are working in the area, they can be electrocuted. The report sounds like the info is wrong. |
