Mr G. Steele, the engineer involved in the collision succumbed to the injuries he sustained in the accident. For some reason, I can't post the link to the article or make any quotes.

Thank you for your 42 years of service, sir.

Train Engineer in Metrolink Derailment Crash Dies

A train engineer who was hospitalized after a Southern California commuter train derailed when it slammed into a truck on the tracks has died in the hospital, police said Tuesday.

The death of train engineer Glenn William Steele, 62, marks the first fatality in the Feb. 24 crash in which a Metrolink train struck a Ford F-450 truck, towing a trailer, on the Ventura County Line tracks and derailed, injuring 28.
