I know....wasn't this just the most awful thing? I've been watching coverage of the story (hated a lot of the commentary) and I think the whole thing is such a mess. Those poor people.
This has been on every day for most of the news (except for the political coverage). They are dissecting it, interviewing the loved ones, interviewing the mayor (Villarigosa), and reporting lots of investigation. The tracks won't be usable for awhile. The head of Metrolink just resigned today. It's a mess!
A preliminary investigation has determined that the Metrolink engineer failed to stop at a red light, causing the collision. The engineer is believed to have died in the crash.
Incredible CJ...
Praying for all the passengers. The loss of life is so tragic. One has to wonder what went wrong in the traffic management, and I'm sure the investigators will discover the reason. Heartbreaking.
