Did you mean "John E. Rimmasch" instead of "Ramasch"?

"What, as railfans can any of us do to prevent this in the future? How do we become more aware of our fellow railfans and how do we intervene when we see something bad about to happen. Truth is, in this situation, everybody/anybody that was close enough to do anything....did. This is why we have an "accidental" ruling.

I think the railfan community takes the biggest lesson here. We need to do a much, much better job of making sure that all of us stay safe. This is top down, from chasing to crossings to track side, we just need to watch, help and loving enforce the basic and oh so important safety rules. It really is all that simple. Tough, tough lesson for all of us and something to never be forgotten."
