A driverless train. Whoa, I guess they'll be investigating that one for a while. Little town, probably everyone was

asleep. What a horror. Hope there are fewer casualties than you might think.

Horrible tragedy. Quote from the article:
"We're not sure what happened, but the engineer did everything by the book. He had parked the train and was waiting for his relief ... somehow, the train got released," vice president of marketing Joseph R. McGonigle told Reuters.
Huh? How does a train “somehow get released”?

I work for a railroad and this is a nightmare nobody wants... No conspiracy theories... Someone made a terrible error.

My heart goes out to the people of the town.
