[RETTUNGSBUS] - Großeinsatz in BURBACH | Gefahrgutzug kollidiert mit Personenzug | 300 Einsatzkräfte

Huge alarm exercise of the nine Burbach local fire departments at the Burbach railway station! On Saturday, 12.10.2019, a serious accident occurs: A freight train with tank wagons containing hydrochloric acid is led onto the track of a passenger train and collides with it due to an interlocking fault. This causes both the fuel tank of the diesel locomotive and one of the tank wagons to rupture and dangerous substances to escape. In addition, the locomotive is set on fire, which threatens to spread to the passenger train. Several people are seriously injured or even trapped in the passenger train. The exercise was attended by an estimated amount of 300 firefighters from all nine local fire brigades, the German Red Cross (DRK), the railway emergency management and the rescue bus of the Westfalen-Süd public transport company.
