Conversely, no train has ever been speeding in a schools zone, jumped a curb and killed a bunch of kids.
Yet. There's still more juice to squeeze in the exciting world of trains.

Interesting disaster story but no one off the trains was injured, though school kids died
If anything it reads like the train with all of the kids was likely traveling below the speed limit.
Yeah, I wasn't posting it to say I'm anti-train or something. It's just a horrible, but interesting story.
I mean, they do that sometimes. Particularly in countries with poorly maintained tracks.
They don't do it by the driver fixating on something on the side of the (rail)road and steering toward it/them
No train delivered amazon shit to my door
Good. The future is better without cars and Amazon.
They genuinely used to do this.
