Los Angeles Metro Link Lawyer – Text Message Discussion

Was the Engineer Text Messaging before the Metrolink Crash?

Apparently there are some teenagers that had become friends with the Metrolink engineer because of the interest that had in his job.  One teen, Nick Williams, has claimed that the engineer was texting him throughout the day, and that the third and last text message he received that Friday came to his cell phone just moments before the crash.  The teen has been seen on air holding a cell phone with a text message from the engineer date and time stamped, Friday, Sept 12th 4:22 pm.
Denise Tyrrell said that she feels it is “unbelievable” that an engineer would be sending text messages while operating a train.  The name of the engineer has not been released yet.
This claim has not been confirmed as yet.  In past accidents, similar claims were made, so this needs to be investigated further.
This is the worst crash that has occurred since 1993 where 47 people were killed.  The Metrolink commuter train was going to Ventura County with 220 passengers, one engineer, and one conductor.  The train that it collided with was a freight train with a crew of three.  Families of victims are struggling with their sudden losses.  At least 25 people have died from the crash and at least 135 have been injured.
