Viewing Album:  CSX Derailment Track Work, Yough River Bridge, McKeesport
 
By:Curt Beal
Dates:6/9/2014 - 6/9/2014
Album Info:On June 7, 2014 the eastbound Q352 train derailed on the former P&LE bridge over the Youghiogheny River in McKeesport. 10 cars derailed but no injuries were reported. All three tracks on the east end of the bridge had damage but Track 1 was reopened to traffic the next day. A faulty switch for the CSX Mon Sub was said to be the problem. My photos cover the repair phase.
