As federal safety investigators probe the Metrolink train crash that killed 25 in Chatsworth, a key question is whether the engineer obeyed track side warning signals. The engineer, who was killed in the crash, ran a red signal before slamming into a Union Pacific freight train on a single line of shared track, according to the National Transportation Safety Board. The NTSB probe is ongoing into the worst train accident in modern California history.

  • STUPID the cab car on 0:33 has the one-windowed cab car. and then the cab car in 0:49 has the 2 windowed cab car car. and then when metrolink enters the curve its back to the one windowed cab car

  • Nice presentation, LATimes

    But sometimes we cannot understand what you are saying.

    Too bad thathe CLOSED switch Robert Sanchez ran through did not derail some wheels. Perhaps that would have brought his attention back from little boys TO DOING HIS JOB!

  • @xmadxcowx Nonsense.  You wanto waste money hiring another to sit in the cab?

    Do you drive your car byourself or have another also sitting with you?

    All the IDIOT faggot Sanchez needed to do was postpone texting the boys and put down his cell phone long enough tobserve the signals and he would have stopped his train.

  • @robertgift bullshit what got those people killed is one person in the cab you need a cunductor in the cab always

  • Could not always hear/understand what announcer said, dolt.

    Cause: Faggot texting cute young boys and not paying attention killed 24.

    Not only did Sanchez miss a RED signal, he apparently failed to notice that he wenthrough a closed switch. (Switch rails aligned to take the freightrain into the siding.)

  • That engineer was the dumbist one yet!!! I am glad he died so that no one else will have to worry about metrolink engineers again, just stupid drivers who go around the gates!
