The derailment at Lewes on Thursday got all the attention, but there was another derailment nearby. Volks Electric Railway tram 10 derailed.

As it won't let me see other pictures without creating an account, does it look like it split the points? Does anywhere else have a picture that doesn't need a login?

As an uneducated guess, the first carriage and the front of the second one went left and the rear of the second went right. The photos from X are attached.
