The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) maintains the Rail Occurrence Database System (RODS). This database contains information on all types of rail occurrences including derailments that must be reported by all Canadian railway operators. This paper analyzes the derailments that occurred on Canadian main track network between 2001 and 2014. The results from the analysis show that between 2001 and 2014 there was an overall decreasing trend in the number and intensity of main track derailments, derailments involving dangerous goods cars, and the number of derailments resulting in the release of dangerous goods. The RODS data was further analyzed to evaluate the frequency of the differing causes of derailments and the severity of the resulting incidents. The most common and severe derailment causes resulted from rail breaks, track geometry, and environmental conditions. Derailment velocity was also found to have an impact on the severity, with higher velocities resulting in a greater number of derailed rolling stock.
