We also provided an update when the National Transportation Safety Board agreed and the Metropolitan Transit Agency, which oversees the rail lines, began the procedure to seek bids from companies who could design camera systems and digital or IP recording systems to be installed in over 1,700 rail cars.
It just so happens that this morning your blogger heard snippets of a morning news report about Senator Blumenthal's nearly being hit by a Metro North train while holding yet another news conference about train safety, this time on a train platform in Milford, Connecticut.
Since it was news to me, I decided to Google it. I found that the incident had rolled through the media like a roaring train (sorry about that!) The New York Daily News, Fox 5 News, Huffington Post, and London's Daily Mail, to name but a few of many media outlets, had not only written about the near-miss, but provided video accompanied by just the type of commentary you'd expect in an incident like this. Most gave advice about staying off the yellow warning line marking the edge of the platform. My favorite is that contributed by Time Magazine. Check out the video and the advice.
My own take on it is that maybe the Senator needs to have his hearing checked.
