Description
Derails are emergency car stopping devices to prevent unauthorized movement of a locomotive or railcar. The derail lifts the flange of the car wheel and drops it clear of the rail impeding forward movement. OSHA, FRA, and DOT regulations require derail protection for all active rail siding. Derails help prevent these railroad accidents:
1. Railcars rolling into each other.
2. Unauthorized or premature removal of cars by locomotive.
3. Rollaway car escaping out onto mainline.
