The fatal mistake of a block operator at the switchboard of Bad Aibling is apparently the reason for the train wreck with at least ten dead. This was reported by the editorial network Germany (RND), which also includes the MAZ heard citing investigators circles.After a railway official took the automatic signal system exceptionally overridden to "quasi by hand waving" a late railcar . The railcars have to avoid the oncoming train, must be timely achieve a so-called meeting point: There the otherwise single-track line is expanded to double track. But the railcars did not make it in time to that point. Yet the oncoming train got the green light. "The drove to compensation signal", it formulated an investigator. That means: On instructions from the interlocking of train drivers was entitled to continue, although the regular signal system was on red. Unsuspecting the engineer was then driven from the second track to the single-track section - and is controlled straight into disaster. http://m.maz-online.de/Nachrichten/Buntes/Fahrdienstleiter-winkt-Lokfuehrer-in-den-Tod |
