Damage to a vehicle body most commonly occurs from collisions. Colliding with any vehicle, a buffer stop or another object at too high of a speed , is bound to cause damage.

To ensure safe contact between vehicles, it is not recommended to exceed 5 km/h. Most common situations in which collision damage occurs is due to derailing , distracted shunting , badly set up switches and wheelslide . Body damage can also be caused by various powertrain failures that cause parts to fly apart, fire and even explosions .

Damage to a vehicle's body may result in failure of various accessories, such as windows, lights and compressors . It doesn't otherwise affect the moving capability of a vehicle, however.

Body damage can be forced manually in sandbox mode using the comms radio damage mode .
