Blue line crash and Euro was in the train

Not Afraid · 05-09-2006, 06:17 PM

I can't even get a news link yet, but a car tried to make a turn in front of a blue line train and the train hit the car. Chris was in the front car of the train. Everyone on the train is ok.

He heard a thud then screechin tires as the train pushed the smushed car along the tracks.

Keep us posted as best you can. Glad to hear he is okay.

I think they were going to turn another train around to get people home. He had to go suddenly. It sure sounded like a war zone on the phone with sirens and heliocopters.

Why do people think they can beat a train?

People are stupid. :sigh:

Yikes!

Wow.

I mean, er .... Wow.

Sorry for the idiot in the car, but this is going to make such a great story when € tells it!

What a scare! Thank God he's ok, and could tell you as much before you could freak out. Hell, I'm freaked out!

Ever have one of those days? You know, earlier today I thought I might get out early, might be able to pay a visdit to Universal and Coaster Matt - but one thing lead to another and it was a real train wreck of a day, So why should it surprise me that my day's metaphore be turned to a reality?

Sigh - what a day

But now I 'm home, happy , content, glass of whiskey in my hand...

And all I can think of reading this thread is, you know once I did beat the train, and it was probably stupid, but here I am know living my consequences though decidely alive. I'll take that that.

Cheers
