HEh, i am against operating push mode on lines that have 5800 ton freight trains. Had the loco been up front like in the amtrak crash i speak of, there would be no fatalities. Then again, what if it hit the train from the rear. The cars were stuck in place due to the loco holding them in back. Had these cars been softer, there would be more casualties, due to the "energy absorbing" crush zone BS you keep pushing.Also, the best thing would be to prevent the accident in the first place. It is a very hard to save lives in a train wreck, and at higher speeds, death is inevitable, no matter how soft or hard you make the cars. May we agree on that? |
