Who cares? This is a diversion from the salient facts. The train was running at 105 mph while approaching a 50 mph curve. The engineer was a Homosexual activist, and he very likely was trying to kill himself and all the passengers.
Whether he was on the phone or not has nothing to do with the fact that train speed had increased in such a manner that the engineer could not help but notice. That no (or very little) action was taken prior to the crash makes it quite clear that the train was doing what the Engineer wanted it to do.
Like that homosexual German Wings Airline pilot, he was trying to deliberately kill himself and his passengers.
This is why you don't let these people with severe psychiatric problems into positions of trust or power.
As far as I’m concerned, homosexuality is itself a psychiatric problem. An honest look at the statistics would show why.
