Movement of turntable perhaps derailing train too (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rotation

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'movement' is the definition.
(I know that rotation is a type of movement)

'turntable perhaps derailing train too' is the wordplay.
'train too' anagrams to 'ROTATION'.
However, I am not clear how this is indicated.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rotation that I've seen before include "Revolutionary movement" , "Recurring sequence" , "Out of control" , "Turning motion" , "Spinning motion or cyclic changes as of crops" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
