[QUOTE]Originally posted by Henry Kisor: [QB] A Metrolink spokesperson says the rail line's preliminary investigation shows that the Metrolink engineer ran a red signal and was the probable case of the crash. This is unusual, coming in advance of the NTSB investigation and findings, and the NTSB itself says it's too soon to tell. The New York Times story is at: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us/14crash.html?hp Death toll at 25 as of 9:30 CDT Saturday and expected to climb further; some 40 victims are in critical condition. I wonder if Metrolink wanted the spokesperson's statement made in order to cushion the impact of inevitable lawsuits, much as many hospitals now are admitting mistakes and apologizing for them so that wronged patients will be more willing to settle than litigate.
