Speaking of trainwrecks, this is my claim to fame, from december, 1994. I was stopped at Cajon, waiting for an Amtrak to get around me, and these guys lost thier brakes and rearended my standing loaded coal train. After teh dust cleared, this is what was left of the Santa Fe train..not much...when I say I am a been there done that engineer, you can take that to the bank..

That video was a truck wreck, not a train wreck
The train drove through that trailer like it wasn't even there.

Two fatalities.
After a quick call to the command center in SB, I know who they were.
Engineer Joe Artino...just a great guy..I loved him...always great to be around....
Conductor Jerry Walker...new kid, nice guy, tried hard, never complained...
Sorry, the tears are welling up and I can't type...this focking business we do..people are in the locker room one day, and gone the next...I hate this, I just so hate this....I need to find out where Joe's funeral is going to be...I need to go....if I'm not too late...rest in peace, my friends....I knew and loved ya both...:(

Undisturbed rest is bullshit to start with!!! I have 8 hours coming to me and they call me for my next job after 6.5? So, I drive home for an hour, jump in the shower and go right to sleep without talking to my family, and I'm called 6.5 hours after I tie up. That's 5 hours sleep max! Got a bid in to be a dickscratcher, wouldn't that be funny? Me Ds'n for you!
