DIB and the FRA higher buff strength were in my view wrong solutioins to the problem. In the MARC/Amtrak/CSX case, I believe cab signals would have saved the day. Certainly, cab signals and the alerter/penalty brake application if not corrected speed control should have been mandated. Ultimately if PTC is well enough designed and implemented, we should see safer operation all around.
