Exercise in Červený Potok

On 18 September 2019, the so-called cooperative exercise of fire and rescue corps was held in the Červený Potok traffic station on the track Dolní Lipka - Hanušovice. During the exercise the consequences of a traffic accident at the level crossing were eliminated. A collision between a bus and a freight train occurred in an accident; eight people were injured in the bus and a dangerous substance leaked from the tank wagon.

Nine fire protection units were involved in the exercise, one of them from Poland. The exercise was also attended by the Police of the Czech Republic, the fire brigade of the Railway Infrastructure Administration and the Emergency Medical Service of the Pardubice Region. The exercise took place within the “Safe border” program.

ČD Cargo also took part in the event, which lent and transported a tank wagon to the place of exercise. The tank wagon was used to train the disposal of dangerous substances leakage and also to train re-railing operations.
