The spokesman on the TV said the line speed is 80 something at that point (Km/h? m/h?) but the crossover is 25.
However, the derailment is about 1.5 miles from Aldershot station where the train is scheduled to stop. Any idea how fast it could accelerate?
The other report was that all the passengers were in the front 2 cars.
Many reports seem to be confusing the loco with a "car".
If you want to look at the area, find Burlington, Ont and find the large interchange of 403, 407 and QEW. There is an IKEA store in the SW corner and the wreck is almost behind it.
