He should.

Still haven’t got an answer to question:
Was any of the other four employees allowed in the engine? Was he alone?

The question turns to: how much of the high level management’s bonuses are tied to “on time” performance?

Remember Jamie Gorelick and Franklin Rains at Fannie Mae?

The fact that this train was going 106 MPH, over twice the posted speed limit, will nullify any of the ‘outdated infrastructure’ arguments for more federal spending for such things.....................

Just went to FB and saw that his FB page is still there, including the black blank profile picture. Amazing.

Yes, it's still there. What's interesting, is that he changed his profile photo (to all black) at 1:39 AM the night of the accident. The news claimed that he was questioned for six hours after the accident.... so did he change the profile picture in the middle of being questioned?

If they cannot be run by a private company, then let them go out of business.
Lack of competition is the problem.
Get it off the backs of the tax payers.
Sell them both !
