I doubt it, as the engineer on Metrolink is dead, and its about 95% sure he is one who went by red signal.Its pretty common in those area's to keep a 10 000 ton freight moving and have a passenger train wait for a few minutes. Seems to me as Delay In Block rule violation, metrolink simply forgot they had an approach before making last station stop. The dispatcher has no blame, he did not fuck up , since he can not even give a signal to the Metrolink train once the Freight enters the single track section, which is longer than you think. |
