Los Angeles Metrolink Crash

Sets things in perspective of how a small vehicle in relation to locomotive and commuter trains can cause such havoc... Science run amok there, worst fears realized for many...

Well just look at the damage that the cab car did to the UP loco. That also is very telling. One wouldn't have figured that a cab car could caused that much damage to the loco.

Those were some amazing photographs. The photo with the horns lying alone on the ground was kind of ominous as well.

The news last night said the investigators now believe this was intentional, not a botched suicide attempt. Premeditated derailing of a train... Sad

Yup, I saw that on the news too. If it's true, then they really need to put this idiot away for a very, very long time. :angry:

If it was not a suicide attempt but a premeditated act I would not at all be surprised if the DA goes ahead with a death penalty prosecution.
