More bad news is going to be coming out. I just found out that a Moorpark pastor and his wife were on the train. He does not show any brain activity. His wife is being released today with a punctured lung.

Since trainriders often only know each other by first name or by face only, unless they publish a list of pictures of the victims, we will never know for certain if someone we used to ride with didn’t make it.

I made a mistake also and didn’t read to the news that Bob has two broken legs... awful.

Many familiar faces will surely be missing, should you decide to take that train again. I watched a man being interviewed on ch.9 last night. He was one of two riding in the second car who emerged unscathed. Later, when he was asked if he would ride that train again, he said he had to talk with his wife and daughters about that. The interview, where he described the crash, the conditions and rescuing other passengers from the car, was very poignant.

I was going to take a different train yesterday out to the L.A. County Fair, but came down with a bad cold.
