Woman Hit By Train in Glendale

A woman was killed today right near the site of the Glendale Metrolink crash when she was hit by an Amtrak train. Apparently she was crossing the tracks pushing a shopping cart when she tripped and was struck.

My heart goes out to the woman's family and friends, but it also goes out to the engineer, who is often ignored in these situations. It cannot be easy for him or her to have to live with being at the controls when someone dies, even if there was nothing that he or she could have done to prevent it.
