wow tell me you arent this ignorant! Trains cannot stop like cars. When you hear the whistle blow and the train signals come down, hey you better get out of the way. don't blame the train conductors, this is common sense

We live where this all happened and we asked a passerby what happened and he said a pedestrian was hit by a train but was still alive and then the next day we checked the internet and seen that he had passed away. I am so sad over this and it has haunted me every since and those flashing lights are imbedded in my mind. I have been reading some of the comments on another site and please tell me this was not a suicide. Such a young boy and so much to live for. My heart goes out to his family and friends. God be with you and comfort you.

How can you make such a stupid comment? You don't even know what happened. Trains can't stop on a dime. There is alot of force behind them and I can assure you that not one of those conductors ever want to hit someone. If you think they sleep well at night after something like this you are sadly mistaken.

Robert Pines is paid to lie and falsify facts. He does not know the LAW or how the railroad operates. Heck, this idiot thinks the answer is putting a steering wheel on a train. They need to duct tape his butt to the front end of an engine.... WOW I bet he would squeal like a pig at a BBQ...

Daily Horoscope for January 6

Aries

The behaviour of somebody around you (most probably your partner or family member) may be rather irrational today. Alternatively, a surprise involving one of these people is possible. Try to keep your domestic plans reasonably flexible to cover all possible outcomes. The focus is on improving your relationship with your partner or with friends today. Any outings should go very smoothly.
