710112 collision with Buffers at Liverpool Street Station (15/10/2026)

[800001]

I've just seen some pictures sent to me showing LO 710112 has collided with the buffer stops and has derailed, at least one bogie on front carriage and all of the second carriage.

Platform 1/2 are obviously blocked.

I won't share pictures as unsure where they have come from.

Given all terminal platforms here have TPWS Overspeed Sensors part way down platform set at 8mph i believe going to be interesting to see what RAIB find here. I recollect a 710 was also involved in a buffer stop collision at Enfield Town a few tears back.

Something similar to the London Bridge buffer collision quite possibly, where the cause was found to be micro-sleeping. Hope everyone is alright - given that I haven't seen much news about it, I guess the impact hasn't been too severe

It was 5T44 so likely no passengers involved.

Overground having their 2nd 701 buffer incident in the space of 5 years. Interesting as once again the trains can be assumed to have slowed down below the 10mph tpws trigger but not before the buggers for X reasons. Hoping like the previous it isnt nefarious. Images showed two carriages being the front two had derailed.

Could someone private message the pictures please?

Platform 3 is blocked as well with a unit stabled to prevent passengers from seeing.
