I don't have much issue with the report itself, but the headline is very misleading. It makes it sound like the train was doing something wrong. This seems to go well with "train lost contact" but at least those euphemisms are relatively benign. This implies the engineer was at fault for this :angry2:

I like the sign barring trucks from that crossing. Especially the part about the ban being "STRICTLY ENFORCED."

Yup, it was enforced alright! With the front of that so-called "speeding" train.

Well, they've changed the headline, but the "speeding" references still exist within the article.
