The Chronicle (
sfgate.com) even had a breathless story about the engineer having run trains on Caltrain (back when Amtrak had the operating contract). No indication that he did anything other than his job, but the headline writer sure tried to turn it into something else.
Too bad nobody can get away with standing up and telling the Press and the local Pols: OK, shut up now. The first-day lede is over with. The crash is being cleared up and tracks fixed. Trains will be running again in a day or 2 - Amtrak will let you know when and with what restrictions if any. We're investigating the rest and will let you know what we find out when we find out and can explain it in short words. Over and out.
