Here is view of the derailment site at Norquinco, Argentina. This was a passing siding and watertank. We had just taken water at the bridge north of town. The watertank is not fully functional for railroad use. The second loco and the tankcars took most of the stress of the derailment. Three tankcars were derailed or turned on their side.
The passenger train remained on track and not one passenger or crew were hurt.
