Metrolink has just admitted guilt in the accident, blaming the “contract employee” engineer for running a red signal.

18 dead? or are they still counting?
I know it sounds like we wouldn’t do that, but something takes your attention away for a few moments and you miss the signal. Human error, it’s the one thing that’s very hard to filter out.
What a shame.
I appreciate the update.
Wow. just wow.
They can’t just blame the engineer. The conductor must call aloud every signal and ensure the engineer knows and follows the indication.
