Posted by trainsarefun on Sat Sep 13 00:29:10 2008, in response to Re: **Breaking News** - Metrolink Train collides with freight train, posted by R33/R36 mainline on Fri Sep 12 23:55:35 2008. The Silver Spring collision happened at about 40 mph, as I recall it. The MARC II cab car ruptured the fuel tank on the AMTK F40PH, and the MARC II car had a good chunk immediately torn away and then covered in diesel fuel which was ignited and burned. One hopes that those on the MARC train doused with the fuel mercifully lapsed into unconsciousness before they were burned and choked to death. |
