Is Metro Any Safer One Year after Deadly Crash?
(Washington Examiner) — Metro received a clear wake-up call when one train crashed into another outside of the Fort Totten rail station a year ago Tuesday, killing nine people and injuring dozens more.
The deadly wreck, the worst in the system’s history, compounded years of warnings about the dangers of Metro’s oldest rail cars collapsing upon impact and train near misses forecasting that its track safety system was failing to stop some trains from getting too close.
