<p>[quote user="Euclid"]When I read his discussions in the cab about how he accepts the ease of getting lost, read that he thought he had a good plan to find the curve, read about his failure to use maximum braking, and read that his last comment before leaving the rails was, "Aw, we're dead," I get the impression of somone who is hapless. [/quote]</p> <p>Remember, at Amtrak the engineer is usually alone in the cab. Now has a trainee conductor with him. I wouldn't judge from this conversation as it doesn't reflect the normal working environment.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
