<p>[quote user="BaltACD"]Under the circumstance - why inspect at at all - Restricted speed for all trains. Save the MofW Overtime.[/quote]</p> <p>You are smarter than that.[;)]</p> <p>Take the situation at Doon. 95% of the time the MofW's inspections are sufficient to find defects. And then there are situations like on June 22, 2018 when not all possible defects can be found with visual inspections alone.</p> <p>That is the time the doubts should set in. At least it is the way I handled similar situations in my 35 year carreer in civil engineering.</p> <p>And that 100 times nothing happened doesn't mean the 101 time will go well too.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
