Not surprising, if your negligence killed 80 people or so.

This must be the driver that was bragging about going over the speed limit, and took a picture of the speedometer to prove it...

Yes. His comment “I hope nobody is killed because it would be on my conscience” sounds strange. Is it possible to recklessly derail a train and injure, terrify people etc. and only worry if someone died how it would make YOU feel. I know he must have been in shock - maybe that’s it but I find his comment galling. As if the real problem is how he would feel versus how all the people affected by the crash, the families of the dead etc., would feel.

Big moslem presence in Spain. It’s sad but I find myself wondering if he’s spent any time with them or at a mosque.

Remember that large train crash in LA a few years ago? The homo engineer Sanchez was texting his young boy fans (train spotters) when he crashed. This got covered up for the most part.

Hi speed rail ... when it fails, it fails big.

Did the press blame it on racism yet? Oh wait, this happened in Spain not here.

I heard somewhere that he had been driving trains for 30 years. I wonder if he was drunk or stoned to have screwed up so badly.

Lawyer up, claim you’re a democrat. You don’t remember. What difference does it make? You’ll get off.

Refused to answer? Or too drunk or stoned to answer? I highly suspect his bloodstream was full of illegal substances.

However, thanks to the KTVU station in Oakland we were able to learn the name of the train's conductor, it is Serge Tufast.

(With special thanks to a fool who watches this station, uh, religiously.)

Even if the Muslim terrorists weren’t involved in this train wreck, think of the possibilities of inexpensive mass casualties by terrorists sabotaging high speed train systems. Thousands of miles of unprotected tracks and equipment.
