NEW YORK (WABC) -- Metro-North's Hudson Line Service is suspended due to freight train derailment in the Bronx.

The freight train derailed on the Metro-North tracks near the Spuyten Duvil train station.

Hudson Line service has been suspended in both directions.

Six of the 24 cars on the train derailed just east of the station behind Kennedy High School. Initial reports indicate the train is still upright.

No injuries were reported.

This was not a passenger train.

Metro-North says that they are sending buses to replace the Hudson Line service.

They've been having bad luck for the past many years ... it's just that they don't do their thing on MNRR all that often. :)

Here's for you and anyone else who is curious about this fine Florida railroad ... there's "stand your ground" and "ON the ground" ... take yer pick. Heh.

We'll start you off with scenery, the main site has all the details of what it's like to work for the REAL three stooges once yer done gawking at all the WTF that is CSX ... :(

It looks very bad to me, especially if track/third rail is torn up. It would to be replaced. But how do you re-rail a car if there is no track to put it on? Or if the truck came off the car?

Let's discuss this logically. With the sun beating down beating down on those rails all day they had to be super hot. Didn't the derailment happen around sunset so the rails didn't have a chance to cool down yet? Doesn't that freight train, with all those heavy garbage cars, weigh a hell of a lot more than a passenger train? Doesn't that sheer weight put more stress on the tracks/roadbed?

Doesn't happen often enough to be an issue. Stuffing NYPS with more unscheduled rush hour trains would be rather disruptive at this point. It's bad enough when a late Amtrak LD train is around.

This will probably take some time to fix the tracks.

That mightn't be a coincidence. Metal expands in the heat. Rails are made of metal...

Indeed. Amtrak is running at restricted speed out of fear of rail spread.

Are you saying MTA/MN personnel do not do the track work like NYCT does? A private contractor maintains/fixes/replaces track on M/N?

And I'm guessing either a heat kink (really a cooling kink) or a truck/bearing/wheel issue or failure, it's all conjecture at this point. My question had to do with blaming CSX. I know full well their history but how would they be at fault here unless they operated the train improperly or missed something on a train inspection or air brake test.
