What delusional world do you live in! <br />I can only assume that someone you love was hit by a train and you cannot come to terms with the fact that THEY ended it. Are you out to try and vilonize the pour people working in the head end watching all of this happen. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS LIKE SITTING IN THE CAB! You can't know what it is like to watch a young person walk in front of you and lay down their heads as if to go to sleep. You don't knowwhat it is like when those peoples faces look back at you when you go to sleep. YOU have never sat in the cab and held your breath as you are whistling the horn at a level crossing with a gate down and some IDIOT in a pick up truck with his music blaring so loud that he can't even hear a train coming and hasn't got the good sense enough to look before crossing, never minde that the gates have gone down for a DMNED good reason! You need to deal with your emotional s*@t somewhere else, because trying to victomize those who have no control over it, who woke up one morning to go to work, and ended the day being interogated by the police for killing someone who was stupid enough to jump in front of a train..... <br />As for crossing that are not protected, ya, it's sad. There are an awful lot of grivers who don't realize that you are to slow down at ALL railroad crossings and look both ways. And there are some innocent victems, who really were in the wronge place (because they didn't know enough to slow down and look - or that tracks are not safe places to play) at the rong time, who really didn't set out that day with a death wish......but PLEASE.....those who drive the engins are not to blame. <br />I'm not sur if there is an easy cheap solution. The only ones that I can think of is the bridge all crossings. Never the less, some fool eventually would find a way to find their way into the nightmares of the engineers. <br />Find your vindication else where please. I think we all know this is getting old and nowhere fast!
