<p> I don´t think this is funny.</p><p>A derailment in real life railroading is a tremendous hazard with a potential of severe injuries and the loss of life. Railroads all over the world are spending fortunes to improve their track in order to avoid derailments. We have seen in many cases the sad results of neglect and carelessness, as exercised in the 1980´s and 1990´s, when track maintenance was cut short for reasons of shareholder value.<br></p><p>As model railroaders we spend extra care to put down our track so we get realistic and reliable operation - see MR´s new brochure on this topic.</p><p>Now why should we add "planned" derailment to our layouts? For me, this is toy-like! <br></p>
