Honestly, I’m surprised deaths like this do not happen more often

“Walking along the tracks”. I would say its more likely suicide than distraction by cell phone. Who walks along he tracks?

RIP to the lady. Prayers for the engineer who will now have a lifetime to replay the final images.

The conductor began sounding the warning horn,.... The conductor said he tried to make an emergency stop, but could not get the train to stop in time.

I guess that I misunderstand the job of a Train Conductor.

Check for a baby. Around me most of these young women on phones are babysitters who don’t give a dam about the kids because they are too busy talking on the phone all day.

Reminds me of the Navaho and his Pinto pony.

One day they went awalkin'
Along the railroad track
They were swishin', not lookin'
Toot! Toot!
They never came back

Are there cellphones in the afterlife? Walk these tracks and find out.

I have never gotten how someone can be hit by a train, unless they are trying to run across before it comes.
The tracks vibrate so even if you were hard of hearing you’d feel movement.
The train is really loud, the conductor will hang on the whistle to get your attention, its really really loud.
So how can someone be distracted by all that commotion?

Maybe she was deaf? I had just closed up at the Budweiser distributor I worked at and stepped out the front door to see a serious bust going down just a little ways down the street. Cops with weapons drawn carefully approaching a car that one had pulled over.

I saw a cop waving me back and ducked back inside the doorway. Peeking out I saw a cop still frantically waving someone back and turned to see a woman walking down the street evidently oblivious to what was going on. I was much closer to her and yelled at her to get over here and explained what was going on. It turned out she was legally blind and couldn’t see anything that far down the road.

The bust turned out to be a carload of methamphetafaggots, one of whom was reported brandishing a gun on main street. This was a fine example of how criminal rights should be handled. They had the right to do exactly WTF the cops told them to do or get their heads blown off! I enjoyed seeing each of the commanded one at a time to get out, place hands on head and lay face down in the road!

the southbound train was traveling at about 40 mph

There's not much let of her but an oil spot on the tracks. I find no sympathy for her stupidity.
