Photograph depicts the site of two derailment mishaps in 1991 and 1995. In November 1991, there was (and still is) a pipe yard of West Coast Gad Transmission Ltd. located above the track. Two huge pipes got away and rolled down the cut into the path of oncoming train. A concrete block wall was erected to stop this. Also, all pipes were stored at 90 degrees to the rail track.
