The rail did not puncture the front of the car. It came up through the floor possibly even aft of the lead truck.Even if the emergency brake rate were a lot better, there is still no way for a train to stop for a vehicle on the tracks. You are comparing emergency braking on a heavy train operating at with speed with a little LRV operating at relatively low speeds. ROAR |
