MBTA smash
"I crashed a train of repainted Series 2000 cars into
an MBTA commuter train at 215 km/h and these pics show the result" More
good work from Tom as he creates a nice mess taking out all 4 lines.

South Shore Ouch
Tom J sent this one in, "I
crashed a South Shore interurban train into a
buffer stop and had another train crash into the back of it a few seconds
later and this is the result"

 |
Odd Trainz
Russell sent this Trainz crash in "A
very bizarre derailment, where a Class 475 derailed on a set of points,
where most of the train remained upright, one car fell into the street
below! I decided to shunt the train and continue with one less car."
7/10 15/4/2005 |
 |
Clapham Approach
This derail again from
Russell Burgess is of a 319 Thameslink on the London-Brighton route, and
just as he approached Clapham Junction. Its a tricky corner even when your
not trying to crash!
8/10 6/4/2005 |
 |
Quality Control Testing
It maybe Trainz but it still an interesting
crash sent in by Russell Burgess "I
decided to take a fictious Class 475 for a wander on a fictious layout
(Holman Valley – From a railway plan track book), got near the last leg of
the journey and found my track monkey’s had been out! In other words, it
crossed a bridge and I found the track wasn’t aligned properly. I found
this out 3 or 4 incidents later!" Cant be too careful with route creation!

Tunnel Trouble
We haven't had a tunnel crash in a while so
here is Tom with a freight train derailing and crashing at over 600mph.
8/10 6/4/2005 |



 |
Up and away
"Here are two crashes which involve a freight
train colliding with a handcart and helicopter while in a tunnel. The
first hit at over 80 MPH which sent the loco, handcart, and helicopter
over the embankment. The second crash involved the train hitting at over
720 MPH and sending the loco bouncing off the mountain! Enjoy." Tom really
takes some of this stuff to a new level!
8/10 6/4/2005 |


 |
Back it up a little
Tom sent in this crash where he backed up a
train with passenger coaches at over 1140mph with these rather impressive
results!
9/10 6/4/2005 |
 |
UFO vs Helicopter
Its trainsim but not as you know it as Tom J
crashes a UFO into a Helicopter at over 800mph!
8/10 6/4/2005 |


 |
Supercharged Madness
Jacques sent these three screenshots in of a
over clocked Dash 9. The first two shots show the train ramming a lashup
of the locomotive and a cut of 10 or so cars into a parked set of cars at
1000-2000mph. The third is a derail on a switch on the Marias Pass which
went into a building. Great stuff!
10/10 25/3/2005 |
 |
Flight Sim meets Train Sim
Tom sent this crash in featuring two scenic
helicopters crashing on the track. Interesting models to be "driving".
7/10 25/3/2005 |
  |
Who put that hill there?
Tom J sent this interesting crash in "I
crashed a passenger train through a factory and up a hill and these pics
are the result".
8/10 25/3/2005

 |
Thomas Style
He was here when we started the site and now
Flob returns with this great Thomas The Tank Engine style crash that
apparently wasn't supposed to happen... I think he said that 4 years ago.
9/10 25/3/2005 |
 |
That cloud looks like...
Caleb Randolph sent in this flying crash of a
steam train and some early coaches that seem to have taken to the sky
creating their own clouds.
8/10 25/3/2005 |

 |
Double Header
This big steam crash comes in again from Ben
Schepers who got a total of four trains running towards each other on a
bend, creating a massive smoking crash... great work!
10/10 25/3/2005 |
   |
Head on smash
Ben Schepers sent in this interesting crash
with a head on view moments before the high speed impact. I think I can
just make out "300kmh"!
8/10 25/3/2005 |

 |
That UFO
Tom managed to crash the UFO into another passenger train that also
managed to bounce up a hill where as the UFO tries to make a quick escape
the the air, but fails.
9/10 13/3/2005 |

 |
Crash in the rain
Tom sent this crash in with a passenger train
"hitting a mountain". Simple enough I suppose.
8/10 13/3/2005 |
 |
On the bridge
Not content after falling through a bridge
JarOfWar manages to balance a wagon on top of a road bridge!
8/10 13/3/2005 |
 |
Fallen This
from JarOfWar shows a massive collection of damage after a freight train
fell through a bridge during a collision.
9/10 13/3/2005 |

  |
Standby for lift-off
This is quite an amazing crash as its captured
with 3 well timed shots. Tom smashed a passenger train into a building at
high-speed which bounced off and went airborne.
9/10 13/3/2005 |

 |
To the summit
Tom derailed a passenger train which then
ended up trying to climb a mountain without rails, good effort!
7/10 13/3/2005 |


 |
Up and down
Tom crashed a freight train loaded with ore
and coal at over 100mph which then went on up a hill and rolled back down
into the valley.
7/10 13/3/2005 |

 |
Break! No wait... Don't!
Another crash from Tom shows what happens when
you break after uncoupling your train further behind you!
8/10 13/3/2005 |
 |
Embanked
This commuter train that ended up being grounded on a hill is courtesy of
Tom.
6/10 13/3/2005 |


 |
Look out for that ship!
Tom J crashed a freight train into a steam
train at over 370 MPH while on an ore dock. These three pictures show the
result. That some amazing distance covered and I wonder what the guys on
the ship must of been thinking!
9/10 13/3/2005 |

 |
Parked
"I crashed a small freight into four parked locos at
over 400 MPH causing this crash." Tom did atleast clear the wreckage from
blocking the railway!
8/10 13/3/2005 |


 |
Colourful Crash
This crash was sent in by Tom "I crashed a VIA
train into a couple VIA locos at over 110 MPH. Moments later, a
supercharged loco (which I had uncoupled earlier) crashed into the
derailment." And that is one of the worst train liveries I have seen on
here!
8/10 03/03/2005 |
 |
Go Jets
This was sent into me and shows some serious distance being covered by
crashed Jet Trains
7/10 03/03/2005 |
 |
Mess on the parallel
Two parallel tracks, perfectly safe? Not when
JarOfWar is involved as this massive messy crash shows!
9/10 03/03/2005 |
 |
Bridge Take Over
Who said Road Bridges cant take trains?
JarOfWar proves they do just as good job as proper rail bridges in this
crash.
10/10 03/03/2005 |
 |
Car on the roof
This crash by JarOfWar is hard to see but look
carefully and you will notice a wagon has landed on the roof of a
building.
9/10 03/03/2005 |

 |
Water Landing
This crash by Tom has a VIA train having a
massive crash on a bridge with almost every single coach falling into the
water or slipping through the bridge.

 |
Amtrak Charger
I got this crash sent in "I
crashed my Amtrak Superliner in Santa Ana with 4 Locomotives. This is
train 14 as it made its way to San Diego." Nice work
7/10 03/03/2005 |
 |
London to Brighton mix up
James Carr sent this crash in "OK so its a series 2000 on the London to
Brighton run, I don't know what happened but a few minutes after leaving
East Croydon the front half of the train went straight on, whilst the back
end wanted to go to the left." Sounds like some interesting point
problems.
7/10 02/03/2005 |


 |
Autumn Blues
"I was driving a passenger train on the
Northeast Corridor when I uncoupled the coaches and put the loco into
emergency and these pics are the result. " Nice work Tom, classic style
MSTS Crash.
8/10 02/03/2005 |

 |
Tunnel Flight
Tom handed this crash over which involves a
supercharged loco crashing head on into the Train of Tomorrow while in a
tunnel. The Train of Tomorrow was sent hurtling miles away as can be seen
in the second pic.
8/10 02/03/2005 |

 |
On a Bridge
This crash from Tom shows an Amtrak train
smashing into some locos at high speed with a few making it into the
water.
7/10 02/03/2005 |

Bourbonnais crash where an Amtrak train smashed into t a wagon carrying
steel.
N/A 15/2/2005
|

 |
Truck meets train
Tom sent this accident in which "involves a
truck crashing into another VIA train at over 135 MPH and while the truck
was stopped dead in its tracks, the first loco of the VIA train was thrown
quite a distance when I barely hit it!"
7/10 15/2/2005 |


 |
Up up and away.

almost landing on a car on a nearby road.
8/10 15/2/2005 |

1986.
N/A 15/2/2005
|
 |
Stuck In A Bridge
JarOfWar sent this in where the train seems to
have got stuck in a road bridge, seems the driver of that van is very
lucky!
9/10 15/2/2005 |
 |
Floating Cars
JarOfWar shows that trains can float after all
with this big crash on a bridge.
8/10 15/2/2005 |

 |
Trains are not passengers
JarOfWar sent in this crash, where it seems
some wagons have changed roles and become passengers.
8/10 15/2/2005 |


 |
Texas Western
Tom crashed a freight train off the end of the line at
135 MPH. The train ricocheted off a bridge and this is the result. Serious

|
 |
Snow derail
This crash from Tom "Here's a crash I did
outside of Settle where the locos and first car of a Union Pacific freight

at over 160 MPH and this is the result."
7/10 9/2/2005 |

Off the rails
This crash comes from Veeon Izumi and with an
interesting screen shot technique shows a train slipped off the rails and
headed for the water.
6/10 9/2/2005 |

recent accident in California with these results.
N/A 9/2/2005 |

 |
Smash on a bridge
Tom sent in this of a "Union PAcific
freight train where the locos and first car became uncoupled. I reversed

the result."
7/10 9/2/2005 |


 |
Blam! Tom
sent in this rather large crash where a commuter train crashed into two
other trains at over 500 MPH. Just a few wagons left to be repaired!
7/10 9/2/2005 |
 |
Three make it better
This from Tom "is a collision of three
trains." Simple enough so I will let the picture do the talking.
9/10 9/2/2005 |

 |
Caboosed
This was sent in from Tom and shows a passenger train slamming into
a group of locos and a caboose while travelling at over 300 km/h.
7/10 9/2/2005 |
 |
Route Testing
Here's one by myself! I've been getting to
know the route editor and have been making my own bit of track,
unfortunately I forgot I hadn't placed a tunnel in yet!
7/10 27/1/2005 |

 |
Embedded
This crash
from Tom involves a freight
train embedding its lead loco in a house while the rest of the train goes
everywhere. Nice clean up operation!
7/10 27/01/2005 |

The car, the road and the truck
Entertaining

bridge!
10/10
27/1/2005 |
 |
Is it a bird, is it a plane, no its a huge
crash.
JarOfWar sent in this rather mad flying crash
where it seems almost everything is still connected!
9/10
27/1/2005 |

 |
Loco Switch
JarOfWar sent this interesting crash in "The
two locos are resting on a side track. As the other train came, the two
loco's just stayed there while there presence derailed the other train off
the track as if the loco's were a switch!"
8/10
27/1/2005 |
 |
Turbine Problems
JarOfWar sent in this crash with a load of
turbine jet engines and some freight wagons. An interesting mess.
8/10 27/1/2005 |
 |
Derailed Or Detracked?
This simple crash from JarOfWar shows another
error with the tracks.
5/10 27/1/2005 |


 |
Accelerate, break, crash!
Tom sent this one in "I drove a train and
uncoupled the first two locos and hit the brakes and let the rest of

7/10 27/1/2005 |
 |
Meadow Express
Delorean sent this long range derail: "The
loco is the Flying Scotsman with ten passenger cars, i launched it at 690
Mph to a bufferstop, the machine walked about half mile over the green
perfectly straight, but all the mess exploded suddenly. The pic is taken
at 2 miles of the bufferstop and the train reaches the horizon line before
stops."
8/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
A UFO in passing
This crash again from Tom shows what happens
when a passenger train tries to pass a UFO on the adjacent track. The
width of the UFO actually covers the adjacent lines and should a train try
to pass it, it will crash. Rather interesting!
9/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Up and away
This from Tom has a freight train smashing
through a bufferstop and making its own way over the Ribble Valley at just
under 300mph
7/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Everything Crash
Instead of just aiming at one building when
your slamming a freight train into one, why not take out the entire
industrial area? Good thinking Tom!
9/10 19/1/2005 |


 |
Warehouse Crash
Tom moved on from factories and decided to
smash this time into a warehouse, using a BNSF freight train and ramming
into it at 219mph creating the usual amount of havoc and mess.
8/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Freight car
This crash from Tom has a Amtrak train
crashing into a freight car at over 100mph causing it derail and tip over
in the snow.
8/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
TGV crashes
Thomas Seifert sent in these crashes of a
postal TGV derailing in a station and also one derail that reminds me of a
very similar one I did of the Eurostar when the site was new with the end
loco pointing to the sky even though it was still connected to the rest of
the train. Nice stuff!
9/10 19/1/2005 |
 |
Loner
JarOfWar sent this crash in with a simple loco sat in the middle of a vast
junction derailed and upside down. Simple but effective.
8/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Steam vs Overhead
Tom smashed an Acela train into a Steam train
head on at 135mph resulting in this nice crash.
7/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Urban Service
Tom sent this crash in that involves the
default Series 7000 crashing into a house at 270 km/h. Made a very big
mess too.
9/10 19/1/2005 |

 |
Cable Rail
This was sent in from JarOfWar who seems to have played about with the
settings and created this odd route with a true flying train!
7/10 19/1/2005 |


 |
You hit a what?
Tom sent in this mad crash:
This crash shows what happens
when a train hits a FENCE at 220+ MPH. Not quite realistic, but a good
crash. Great stuff!
10/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Unexpected
Here's another of my latest crashes. I was driving a steam train intending
on crashing it into my favourite river, but just before the river, the
train unexpectedly derailed with these pics as the result.
7/10 9/1/2005 |


 |
BNSF Fact
This crash from Tom
involves a
BNSF intermodel train crashing into a factory at 270 MPH
and making quite a mess as well as going to the sky!
8/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Polar Express
Give Tom a steam train,
some snow and a bufferstop and what does he do with it? Good stuff!
8/10 9/1/2005 |
 |
Stuck
No information at all about
this one from JarOfWar but the picture speaks for itself!
9/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Bridge Over The River Why
JarOfWar sent this crash in
featuring a BNSF freight train falling through a bridge. The bugs in MSTS
still make good crashes.
9/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Bridge Jam
JarOfWar sent in this
serious derail. This time jamming up the bottom of a bridge with a big
derail.
8/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Stuck in the middle with you
Tom crashed a CP freight into
another train at about 315 MPH and travelled HALFWAY THROUGH the train
before this happened. Madness!
8/10 9/1/2005
|

 |
Freight Derails
Mark Pompeo sent in these two freight derails,
one ending up in the middle of nowhere and another one that has wrapped
itself around various buildings. Interesting clean up operation!
8/10 9/1/2005 |
 |
Ribble Valley
Charles sent in this rather large accident "At
Ribblehead again, our HST is now a 60mph traveller, hiitng both the the
FGW HST and Flying Scotsman set, sending coaches across the valley"
9/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Snowy times
Charles sent in this crash "At Penrith on a
snowy day, a train hits another and the wreckage spreads around all over
the station. I think the driver saw the other train too late." Think that
station is out of action for a while.
8/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
Buffer mess
Tom crashed a freight train into a bufferstop on the
S&C route at 109 MPH and this is the result. Big pileup under the bridge,
for extra bonus points.
9/10 9/1/2005
|

 |
Into Orbit
Tom sent this massive air crash in, "Here's a crash I did a few minutes
ago. I crashed a train into 14 parked locos at 2479 MPH and sent one loco
into orbit! Enjoy." Thats some serious hangtime!
9/10 9/1/2005 |

 |
On its side
"I crashed an Amtrak train into a bufferstop at over
110 MPH and this is the result!" Simple and effective from Tom.
7/10 9/1/2005
|


 |
Freight "I
crashed a freight train into another freight train going through the
crossovers while my train travelled at over 250 MPH. Enjoy." Looks like
another messy one from Tom.
8/10 4/1/2005 |

 |
Valley Tom
sent in this great derail which results in a commuter train doing 490mph
slipping off the rails and across a valley. Excellent.
10/10 4/1/2005 |
 |
Definition
This crash from Tom simply says "here's a crash that defies definition and
gravity too!". Think that sums it up!
9/10 4/1/2005 |




 |
Buffers
These two crashes from Tom show a Conrail freight train smashing through a
buffer stop and scattering its wagons all over the place at 240mph and the
second is of a Amtrak train crashing through another buffer stop at a
slightly slower speed of 115mph.
9/10 4/1/2005 |

 |
Squash "I
was driving a passenger train with two locos and 4 coaches. I uncoupled
the first loco in a tunnel and the rest of the train hit the loco and
derailed causing this crash. Enjoy." More great work by Tom J.
8/10 1/1/2005 |
 |
From Bridge To Air
JarOfWar sent in this single shot of a massive
accident, with wagons going everywhere. Big clean up!
9/10 1/1/2005 |
 |
Mars?
Charles Crook sent in this big crash "The
Pendolino to Jupiter / GNER 225 to Mars made me wonder what happens if I
took a different stock to the Mars Port. Two Class 47's + a mixed 2 + 8
FGW HST hit this at about 75mph. I have to say the rail completly
thrashes the road." 8/10 1/1/2005
|

 |
Buffer Stop
This massive derail from Tom resulted after a
Western Pacific train smashed through a buffer at 200mph on the S&C route.
8/10 1/1/2005 |

 |
Is that santa?
Another from Tom, this time he captures a red
streak flying across the snowy sky... could it be Santa? No its just a CP
Holiday train hitting head on with a steam train at 440mph!
8/10 1/1/2005 |

 |
SPV crash
Tom J made these two trains collide at over 400mph sending coaches
everywhere, and a brilliant second shot of some taking to the clouds!
9/10 1/1/2005 |
  |
Monon Crash
"Here's a crash I just did. I crashed a
passenger train into a bufferstop at 107 MPH and caused quite the jumble"
Great work as usual Tom!
