What the media isn't saying: the train operator was initally hired to drive a bus and then became a train operator December 2008. I suspected the train operator had very little experience. The media is already dissembling by implying that the age of the train is a factor. Or they'll blame it on some mechanical device which has nothing to do with the accident. The biggest factor was human error. The media will never reveal the fact that the operator had less than 1 year experience driving a train.
