RedRich Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I saw it a few years ago myself and enjoyed it. I like Denzel Washington as an actor so it was double the delight. It was obvious that the guy who also plays Randy in My Name is Earl would cause the runaway, typecast or what. I believe it was loosely based on an incident which happened in Canada many years ago. Rich,
Garfield Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Saw it last night... good film alright. Here's some info on the incident it was based on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSX_8888_incident
Broithe Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Ah, just slap a decent buffer in front - if it's good enough for Portlaoise....
Barl Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I always thought locomotives/railcars had 'dead mans' pedals.......obviously not!
Garfield Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I always thought locomotives/railcars had 'dead mans' pedals.......obviously not! There was a deadman's system on the loco, but it was isolated because the loco brake was applied. The reason the loco kept on going was because it was at full throttle... which, if the dynamic brake had been correctly applied, would've contributed to stopping the train.
