At least 24 people were killed in the head-on crash of a commuter train and a freight train near Los Angeles that officials on Saturday attributed to the failure of the passenger train engineer to stop at a red light.Rico says good, at least the idiot responsible died. But what were the three Union Pacific guys on the freight train doing while the commuter train was fast approaching?
"At this moment we must acknowledge that it was a Metrolink engineer that made the error that caused yesterday's accident," Denise Tyrrell, a spokeswoman for the train line, said at a news conference. She said the engineer, who was not identified, worked for a subcontractor used by Metrolink. The engineer was believed to have died in the crash.
