"Such an advanced control system might have prevented
the Jan. 6, 2005, wreck of two Norfolk Southern trains
in Graniteville, S.C., which spilled chlorine gas into
the small mill town, killing nine, including the train
engineer. A switch set in the wrong position diverted
a train passing through the town to a side track,
where it collided with a parked locomotive."

On the surface it looks like this reporter is putting a spin on something he
has no clue about. I wonder who told him that?
