Hello Guys,

Wednesday (22/01/2014), a train (8000 series - [8003/8009] 8-car 184m) which departed from Central Station at 05:08 AM with headcode UH702 for Saracuruna Station, derailed on a "S" curve and crashed with the structures of Overhead Wires (3 Kv). In this curve we have 6 Lines:


  1. Up Slow Suburban

  2. Dn Slow Suburban

  3. Up Fast Suburban

  4. Dn Fast Suburban

  5. Up Slow Low Land

  6. Dn Slow Low Land



This train runs on L-5 (USLL). I have some pictures and videos too.

I think that must have been what we used to call a rough peak!
