Didn't see the video, because I've read about the CRS report. And a few things are concerning.
Enough walkie-talkies weren't available with the division. Isn't that the most basic tool of communication between the people responsible for operations.
If...
more... the automatic signal wasn't working since 5:30 in the morning, why no steps were taken to rectify it. Or why the section was converted temporarily to absolute block.
Even if TA/912 was issued, how 5 trains were allowed in the block section at the same time. And even in that the MPS wasn't mentioned.
Were the staff untrained about protocols, because except Kanchenjunga no train followed the prescribed speed limit or waiting for a few minutes on every signal. Shouldn't a loco pilot know these things which even a lot of railfans know.
Why the goods loco pilot was overspeeding, was he under some time bound orders from above, because it was a clear day and a slow train could've been stopped in time after spotting another train standing ahead.
The same thing happened with the Gonda derailment, everyone knew that the tracks were unfit, but no steps were taken, even caution order wasn't issued. Now everyone is busy shifting blame on each other.
Till when everyone from the top brass to the grassroot workers will show incompetence. And till when people's life will be treated cheaper than a PR stunt. Someone needs to take responsibility and take it as soon as they can.
