This has to be one of the best reportings of an accident I have ever seen:
http://www.kltv.com/story/38916298/reduced-speed-diminished-amtrak-collision
It also had a good outcome, in that no deaths or injuries plus the aftermath was well handled by the local law enforcement and population. Appears that the local people jumped in and took care of the passengers until further transport could be arranged.

Well, this is small town East Texas, Hallsville TX to be exact, so no real surprise to those that understand the mindset prevailing.

Leave it to the small towns to get it right including the Sheriff’s department. Certainly belies the Barney Fife image that those in many parts of the country have.
