CNN program about wreck in NC trains...are they safe?

  • CNN is presenting a special about the NC wreck and the deaths tonight 1/10/05 It is about conductor and engineer safety and rest time I think watch it and let me know what you think.

  • There is a CSX conductor whom I hassle quite often on the net because he thinks he's better than anyone else.

    His name is Al Moran.

    Here is how stupid this yutz is.........

    He will board a train in Baltimore, MD. at night (Q137), take it to Cumberland, MD., have friends waiting, come to Johnstown, PA to and railfan all day. Then when its close to his call time again in Cumberland, go back and get his train (Q138) back with literally no rest.

    He brags about what he does on certain Yahoogroups.And heaven forbid if his train ever gets into an accident ,and its found that the engineer and conductor were asleep, his butt would be toast because of a trail he leaves on the internet of his stupidity.

    So when the subject of crew rest comes up, how many out there are actually taking the rest and how many are out galavanting elsewhere?

    Its a two way street.
  • Dang, I thought the whole program was going to be on the wreck and investigating of it. Sorry guys (and gals). Oh well maybe we are better off they didnt.
