Perhaps someone with more knowledge than myself can explain this: When the Metrolink train ran through the red signal at CP Topanga, wouldn't the switch been set against him? The Metrolink train would have to run through a closed switch (granted it would have been trailing points), why would that have not derailed the train at that point?
Thanks in advance for anyone who can shed some light on this.
