Malbone Street Wreck off-topic aspect

Posted by LuchAAA on Sat Nov 1 17:46:03 2025

Today is the anniversary of the famous Malbone Street Wreck.

As everyone knows, blogger and railfan Jayman is an expert on HBD and IQ.

We know how he feels about the Concordia shipwreck.

The motorman operating the Malbone Street Wreck was Antonio Luciano.

I wonder if Jayman blames Italians for this famous train wreck? Does he think HBD played a role?

You should ask him yourself.

It was more that Luciano was hurriedly made an operator to fill in for striking workers and given wholly inadequate training. Another factor was that he wasn’t in a proper frame of mind as his young daughter had died of the flu just a few days earlier.

It was the BRT management's determination to break the strike an any cost.
Luciano had to pay off unpaid medical bills (no coverage in those days) or get fired (no union protection either). Taking a run that he was completely unfamiliar with was asking for trouble. And they got it big time.
Damn those pesky unions that wanted to protect their employees and customers.

The unions had no desire to protect their customers.

Of course, the crash wasn’t the union’s fault.

You're not funny, #37.

WGAF what JayMengele thinks? Not that he thinks.

Good union representation would not have allowed Luciano to make that Malbone St trip after working a full 8 hr shift in another craft on the same day. That was my point

That would have been for his benefit and for the benefit of other union members. Any benefit to customers is a side-effect.

Thanks.

On my end I am defending Italians. But I know Jayman thinks HBD contributed to The Wreck.

Proposal 1 increases the total forever wild acreage. It removes 1039 acres and adds 2500 acres elsewhere.

I disagree. He was forced to make the trip or be fired. He was not qualified on the Brighton line. No way does the union benefit by allowing the management forcing an unskilled employee to make the trip. In fact it makes the union look weak for not stopping Luciano from making the trip in the first place. After the wreck, several BRT Mgt employees were indicted for 93 counts of manslaughter. That should say enough about BRT's management agenda

That's a big city elitist view that disregards the needs of the upstate communities.

Upstate residents who depend on the jobs.

Downstate residents who want jobs to exist upstate.

Yeah, cause they get subsidized from the city's economic development. I'd rather they be economically vital so they don't need the subsidy.
