Sounds like the crash on the MBTA Green Line in Newton, MA in May 2008... One train stops at a signal, another rear ends it. The operator was texting. Train speeds on the ex-B&A line are at least 40. That wreck was close to the same train speeds (the MBTA train was doing 37 or 38 MPH) and it was an older (either from the 1986 / 1988 or 1997 orders) light rail vehicle involved, not a heavy rail subway. The car had a black box, unlike the Metro car, and all but the motorman survived.I can see why people are mad at the Metro... If a Type 7 LRV can survive better than a heavy rail subway at comparable speeds, and has a black box recorder, which the Metro car does not, there's something wrong there!
