Didn't know about that issue in the Sunset derailment. So sorry to hear about it. In actual fact, I think a person's risk in a derailment depends more on the circumstances of the derailment than on the person's location in the car. Overall, if there's going to be a derailment at all, I'd rather be in a Superliner than any other type of car. The very safest place is probably inside one of the rest rooms, but that's just my speculation.
