Been a very bad week on the NS Pittsburgh Line Lately.
Yeah, between this, and the Amtrak jumper in Derry several days ago…don’t know condition of the victim in this instance as of yet…another event that a crew has to deal with…must be tough on the crews…Dave Williams http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nsaltoonajohnstown
Fox News is report an AmtrakTrain in LA area killed 4 people in a car or van tonight.
Report on Yahoo says that in the Seward incident, a 24 year old male was walking along and beside the tracks…the train crew blew the horn. When the train reached the location of the male, the male stepped in front of the train, and was killed. Appears to be suicide. Dave Williams http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nsaltoonajohnstown
