Yao's personal story

Longjing 'ao Formation in Houdong Village, Dalu Township, Songtao Miao Autonomous County, Guizhou Province is a small village on the main railway line of Huai Yu. The railway runs through the village and divides the quiet village in two. The villagers in the village live and travel by a temporary bridge across the railway. Yao Shaojun, 63, lives in this village.

Yao's grandparents all live here. Because of his honesty, the villagers in the village trust him. He used to be the captain of several production teams, and formally joined China in July 2009, becoming an old "young party member".

Yao has deep feelings for the mountains, rivers, grass and trees in his hometown. The crossing of Yuhuai Railway in the village made him gain a lot of knowledge. From construction to opening to traffic, he has been walking around the railway to help with some voluntary work. He likes this railway, and the village is full of vigor and vitality because of this railway. Whenever he watched the train flying over the village with its long tail, he would have a lot of associations and excitement. It has become a part of his old age to wander around the railway line after dinner every day.

On April 12, as usual, Yao felt very healthy after breakfast and wanted to go to the fields near the railway to see the crops. It had just rained heavily and the road was a little wet, so he went to the fields along the Song Yin Highway parallel to the railway and wanted to buy a pack of cigarettes at the roadside stall.

Just as he paid for cigarettes, suddenly there was a loud noise in the back direction: "Wow-Dong-Mao-!" Then, I heard Zhang Yanzi, Wang Yongfen, Dai Qi and others in the same village opposite the stall shouting, "A stone fell from the mountain! A stone fell on the mountain! " From the direction and texture of the sound, Yao realized that the stone on the opposite mountain might have fallen on the railway, and it must have hit the rails. He had no time to think, and immediately ran in the direction of the voice. After crossing a small stone mountain, he saw a huge strip stone leaning against the railway subgrade inside the railway bend, which was estimated to be 1000 kilograms. According to his usual time rule, there will be an express bus passing through here during this time. As he ran, he took out his mobile phone, dialed the mobile phone of Xiangchang Tian, reported the danger, and requested to send someone to eliminate the danger immediately. At that time, the mobile phone display time was 12: 38. After Yao received the report, Dalu Township immediately took action, and the director of the Road Protection Office took people to the scene of the incident. At the same time, Huang Jifei, secretary of the township political and legal Committee, telephoned the railway police station of Songtao Railway Station to ask for support.

Just when Yao called Xiangchang Tian, the old man in the same village (who opened a shop where Yao bought cigarettes and sold things) learned about the situation and called Songtao Railway Police Station with the landline 12: 40, requesting Songtao Railway Police Station to contact Songtao Railway Station for emergency stop.

Tang, instructor of Songtao Railway Police Station, was on duty at that time. When he got a call from Dai Qihe, the time was 12: 4 1. It happened that a K74 passenger train from Shanghai to Chongqing North quickly passed Songtao Railway Station (the train didn't stop at Songtao Railway Station), and the speed was about 1 10 km per hour, heading for the accident site.

Don is in a hurry. He knows that time is life and does not rule out the serious consequences brought by boulders. He didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately signaled to intercept the train from Chongqing to Huaihua, Hunan, and went to the signal building of Songtao Railway Station 12: 42. Later, Gong Dongfang, deputy director, was taken to drive to a dangerous place, which was very urgent.

The signal building of Songtao Railway Station did not receive the signal from the railway police station for the first time because the train was passing the signal. It was not until 12: 45 that it received a phone call from station attendant of Lanqiao, telling him that there was a big stone on the line between Meng Xi Station and Lanqiao Station. After receiving the signal from Lanqiao Station, Du Biao, the stationmaster of Songtao Station, and Jiang Shengyun, the duty attendant, immediately took decisive measures to call the K74 passenger train to stop at 12: 45, and informed the technicians of Daluhe Line Work Area of Huai Yu Railway to rush to the scene of the accident for on-site inspection. After reporting the danger to the person in charge of Dalu Township at the first time, Yao quickly climbed over the railway fence and ran onto the railway. He pushed around the boulder several times, but the boulder did not move.

Standing in the position where the boulder is inclined, I look in two directions, because it is in the middle of the curve, the visible distance from Meng Qian is less than 50 meters, and the visible distance from Lanqiao is only about 200 meters. If you don't lift the stone in time, if the train comes at this time, it will be too late to brake, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"The township government and railway personnel can't catch up for a while. What should I do? " Yao's anxious heart is about to jump out. Find someone to help him. There are only some old, weak and sick people left in the village, so he can't move easily, let alone catch up for a while.

As time went by, Yao was in a hurry.

"Can't wait any longer, and then something will happen!" He gritted his teeth. "fuck!" He gave himself orders, rolled up his sleeves and worked hard without any auxiliary tools! He looked around the stone. Only when the ballast (gravel) under the boulder is hollowed out and there is no obstacle under the boulder can the boulder be pushed away. He bent down and began to dig stones with his bare hands.

Just then, he vaguely heard a whistle whistling in the distance. "No, the train is coming!" "A nervous feeling attacked him, and he felt like crying. At this time, he had only one thought: push the boulder away before the train arrived. He grabbed the stone with his hand, not knowing that his finger was cut and bleeding by a sharp stone.

The stone under the boulder was scratched. He rushed to the track, bent down, put his shoulder against the boulder, put his foot on the track and shouted, "Hi!" The boulder moved.

"The elder brother of the small army, hurry up, the train is coming! Come on! Quick! " At this time, Zhang Yanzi, a village woman standing on the hill outside the fence, waved anxiously and shouted.

"ah! Up-!" In desperation, Yao slammed it with all his strength, and one end of the boulder jumped up, then slowly turned over and landed on the railway drainage ditch with a bang. Then Yao jumped off the track in desperation. He fell to the edge of the drain and suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"blare! -"With a long whistle, K74 passenger train flew in and roared past Yao. Then I heard the screeching sound of the train brakes hitting the tracks and the train slowed down. 12: 46, the rear of the train stopped about150m away from the accident.

"The train is safe!" Yao wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and looked at the train that passed safely, with a happy smile on his face and tears in his eyes. At this time, he felt the pain of his blood-stained hands. "Yao in order to push the stone away, almost put his own life on. Too dangerous! " Zhang Yanzi told the author: "I was at the scene, but I couldn't get in, so I had to stand on a high place and help him look out." When I saw the train coming, he tried his best to push the stone. I'm scared silly! It is he who keeps the safety of trains and passengers with his own safety, and he is the hero. "

In the work area of Daluhe Line of Huai Yu Railway, Wu Zhiguo, the squad leader, told the author that he received a phone call from Songtao Railway Station around April 2 12: 45 and arrived at the disaster site with the staff around 12: 50. At that time, Yao had pushed the boulder into the drainage ditch under the railing. Because it was too big, the boulder got stuck in the drainage ditch. Through field investigation, it is found that the boulder rolled down from the forest on the mountain after the rain, crushing many small trees along the way, first falling on the retaining wall, and then rebounding on the railway subgrade at the right upper line of 466 km+960 m. This stone is very hard and weighs nearly 1 ton. The part against the railing is 6 cm higher than the railing. If it is not pushed away in time, stones will hit the obstacle sweeper at the front of the train, causing the train to derail and rush down the subgrade with a height exceeding 10 meter. It may even rush to the parallel Song Yin Highway and nearby villages. The consequences are unimaginable.

Yao was shy when interviewed by reporters. He said: "The situation was so critical that I couldn't care so much. What I thought most about at that time was the safety of trains and passengers. My personal safety is nothing compared with the safety of so many people on the train. "
