The fault was NOT the parked locomotive either....it was parked on a siding doing nothing.The cause was a car (as in AUTOMOBILE) on the track on which the southbound Metrolink train #100 from Moorpark was travelling, cab car first. It hit the car, derailed (picked a switch into the siding where the UP work train was parked), the wreckage then blocked the northbound main right at the moment northbound Metrolink #901 came along with engine 856 leading, and it piled into the mess. |
