  • Isn't Downers Grove where the lady was hit on video years ago when there was one train in the station and a second one came flying up the middle track?

  • Ya, I think so. A lot of historic things have happened here including a bad train derailment destroying the station.

  • go,metrolink,mwtra and cal-train do a lot of backing moves

  • @chatanugadotorg ya, it was at the fairview avenue station tho

  • Main street.

  • Is this Fairview Ave, Main st, or Belmont?

  • Yes, it did happen in Downers. It happened at the Fairview ave station which is the next stop eastbound.

  • If you are talking about the video when BN still had the E9's, that was taken at Fairview Avenue... which is just east of Main Street. Since that incident, trains no longer stop short of grade crossings... rather pulling up completely to block any access.
