Exeter crossing loop collision : ウィキペディア英語版 | Exeter crossing loop collision
The Exeter crossing loop collision was a railway accident that occurred between the Temora Mail Train and a goods train at Exeter railway station, New South Wales, on 13 March 1914. At that time the main line was a single track, with a crossing loop and a down refuge siding at Exeter. == Events leading to Accident == The Up fast goods train was running late by the time it reached Exeter. Despite the train being too long to be accommodated in the loop at that station, the signaller () turned the train into the loop. When the locomotive had reached the points at the Sydney end of the station, the rear of the train was still on the Main line at the southern end. Faced with the knowledge that the Temora Mail would soon be due, the goods train was brought forward so that it could be reversed into a siding on the eastern side of the station yard. It was during this manoeuvre that the Temora Mail struck the goods train head-on.
