For those interested in the TRUTH,Google HQ-2006-48.This is the official NTSB report.Read it two or three times to get the facts of the incident.Not conjecture.

@UP9390 sabotaging the alerter? YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. THE ALERTER WOULD NOT PUT THE TRAIN INTO EMERGENCY. DON'T KNOW FOR SURE??? THEN DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL.

if only the engineer in the camera train had not slowed down at minimum his locomotive would not have gotten hit cause it would have gotten a liitle ways down the siding.

Looks closely at 0:42. The driver of the uncoming train jumps out.

Excuse me? Which crew are you talking about? How do you know the controls weren't being moved?
-
The crew must have fallen asleep not too far away from the junction because the alerter would have triggerd the emergency brakes because of the controls not being moved. unless someone planned it by sabotaging the alerter.

Was the train that overran supposed to stop at the signals which are only 20 or 30 yards from the junction? It doesn't give much room for error, does it?

There's nothing wrong or unusual with the track and signal layout. Trains take a long time to stop which is why there is always an advance signal warning that the next one will require them to stop. But assuming an engineer is in control of his/her train there is no problem stopping where desired. Don't forget it's not required that they stop on a dime right by the signal. It can be hundred feet back, whatever. As long as the rear of the train clears the switch at the far end of the siding.
