Re: Train Derailment in Spain (78 Dead) - CRASH Caught on Tape
Might not have been the drivers fault but he did put pics of his trains speed meter on facebook and boasted about the speed saying the police will never stop him for speeding. it could mean nothing that but wait and see.

This guy is going to be dealt with like that other fucktard the ship captain who killed 30 people and destroyed a cruise liner. All to show off to some woman. What utter twats these people are, they should be shot. |

Re: Train Derailment in Spain (78 Dead) - CRASH Caught on Tape
it is, of course entirely possible that if that train was being driven manually as opposed to A.T.O ( automatic train operation ) that the driver may have been slightly unaware of his exact location & may have realised too late that the train was going way too fast for that section of track ! No excuses, you have to be TOTALLY on the ball when driving a train, which is probably the most difficult aspect of the job which is very repetitive & you can end up on a kind of " auto-pilot "

I may be wrong but I think it was the car behind the engine that derailed causing it to crash. Super 8!

Re: Train Derailment in Spain (78 Dead) - CRASH Caught on Tape
i believe the train has an inbuilt safety system that slows it down on bends or so i heard on the news
|
it's a modern looking train so should've had some kind of speed control or audible warning, thats a sharp bend & there's not much of a bank on the track there to counteract the weight displacement, very very scary
