METROLINK TRAIN HEAD ON COLLISION WITH FREIGHT TRAIN IN SIMI VALLEY

Posted On: September 14, 2008 by The Rudman Law Firm, PLC

The recent Metrolink tradgedy this weekend has rocked the residents of Simi Valley leaving them shocked and grief-stricken. Recent reports indicate that Metrolink is blaming their own engineer for the tragedy for failing to stop at a red light. Passengers who are regular commuters commented that the Metrolink train commonly stopped at the junction to wait for a Union Pacific freight train to continue down the tracks, but this time they did not wait. The fact that the Metrolink train ran the red light caused an alarm to be triggered in the line’s dispatch center located in Pomona. A Metrolink dispatcher tried calling the train’s engineer, but by then it was too late and the accident had already occurred.
