Here is section 12953 verbatim:
Quote:
CVC
2011 California Code Vehicle Code
DIVISION 6. DRIVERS' LICENSES [12500 - 15325] ARTICLE 4. Signature and Display of Licenses
Section 12953

In any circumstances involving accidents or violations in which the engineer or any other crewmember of any train is detained by state or local police, the engineer or any other crew member shall not be required to furnish a motor vehicle operator s license, nor shall any citation involving the operation of a train be issued against the motor vehicle operator s license of the engineer or any other crew member of the train.

(Added by Stats. 1980, Ch. 1134, Sec. 11.)

> IOW, that cop was breaking the law by demanding the E's driver's license.

Section 12953 does not appear to prohibit the police from asking for a drivers license, it merely says the engineer/crew is not required to provide a drivers license.
