When I started out I had several. As I have become more experienced, they have become fewer and farther between. Now I will go back and rework a section if I have problems with it. The main cause of derailments now are trip pins that are too low. Usually this happens on only brand new equipment. All the others have been fixed. I don't agree with the point of the first post. It is kind of like saying that you shouldn't get into the water until you are a proficient swimmer. That is not the way learning works. Although you and I don't remember it, learning to walk was not easy. How are you to develop your skills without first jumping into the water?
