I noticed something else, as you were all talking about the incident. It was stated in the article, that the engineer came to a stop, and his conductor(s) got off to see if there was any cross traffic coming. They saw nothing so they flagged the engineer to proceed, then all of a sudden out of nowhere, this car comes up and hits the train. It sounds to me like someone was trying to set this one up. I agree about the small town cops, because even up here in hte city or outskirts of the city, they lay for whoever they want. I live outside of Chicago, so no one asks. Up here, if an accident occurs, the local police department comes in and starts the investigation, until the Railroad Police arrive on the scene. Then they do their own investigation, but both departments co-operate with each other. Another thing about being a Railroad police officer is the fact that they have more jurisdction than any other police department anywhere, except for the Federal dept.'s. The only trouble is their jurisdiction is with whatever city that their company has tracks through. ralph zimmer ralphn9kym@aol.com
