The under running 3rd rail apparently made the incident far worse. The 3rd rail shoe ramp for the under running 3rd rail is pointed slightly up. An electrician claimed that this caught the SUV and lifted it up through the SUV and into the first 3 cars.http://7online.com/news/exclusive-new-details-on-third-rail-involved-in-metro-north-crash/506244/ Some details might be off, but the gist of it seems right. |
