july 30 2013 sunday train traveling to our death and the fatal santiago train derailment at the time that i start writing the death toll from the train wreck that took place in santiago de compostela in spain has risen to 79 according to an account shortly after the crash sp alternating ave segments with segments of conventional track or of lower specifications occurs at other points of the line the alvia train between madrid and ferrol the fastest going through santigo travels on different tracks between madrid and olmedo valladolid it takes advantage of the ave track then between olmedo and ourense it returns to a conventional track waiting for the completion of the ave works already underway finally between ourense and ferrol it again joins the ave line which at the entrance to santiago goes alongside the old track at that moment the train must brake and when it reaches the tight bend where the accident took place it must leave it speed at barely 80km h the velocity drop at that point is very steep form 200 km h to 80 in a short time span the causes of the excessive speed are still not known the line where the accident occurred is still not within the ertms european rail traffic management system a rail traffic mnagement system preventing a train from exceeding the established speed limit or disobey stop signals very similar to the automatic alert systems already installed in many european countries this system is the one deployed for instance on the madrid barcelona ave line in october 2011 translation by migeru at the european tribune the statement the cause of the excessive speed are still not know is referring to the proximate cause since the ultimate cause is stated directly after the line is not within the version of positive train control signal system used in europe the ertms 30 july also see this update at voices on the square the santiago train derailment could have been prevented with a euro 6 000 beacon ____________________________ you

congressman john mica republican from the florida 7th district and member former chair of the house committee on transportation and infrastructure has been on the attack against amtrak again during the testimony to the committee by john robert smith head of transportation for america and reconnecting america and former republican mayor of meridian mississippi faced aggressive questioning by congressman mica promoting his desired defunding of amtrak but mica spared his real invective for the next part where he let smith know he s seen your little memo that you sent to my mayor something about the belittling eyes in the back of my head tone there was just chilling like he s saying he found the love notes smith was writing to his wife house of representatives slash amtrak funding putting the future of the national system in jeopardy mica read the line in a high pitched tone mocking the hysteria smith was clearly exhibiting when calling winter park mayor ken bradley s attention to the house cuts does smith really think a cut of 1 4 billion to 950 million is such a big deal well yeah actually don t you think the united states is under threat when you re in debt up to your eyeballs when you re borrowing 40 cents on the dollar to underwrite your service mica exploded you re aware that every ticket on amtrak last year was underwritten more than 40 per passenger ticket you re aware of that mica railed against amtrak s soviet style operations and the money losses on food service aboard the trains and asked smith if he should go back and tell that mother of the soldier not getting hot breakfasts you know we need to put this money into amtrak we can t take any cuts out of amtrak to which john robert smith firmly replied that s a false choice congressman indeed you don t have to take the word of dc streetsblog about the exchange as it has been put up on youtube ____________________________________ posted at voices on the square crossposted at the stars hollow

for the federal rail authority expires and the obama administration is answering with a bold new plan to invest in this critical piece of any long term sustainable transport system as described earlier this month at the transport polititic total funding for rail activity both for operating funds and capital projects would increase from about 1 8 billion in 2013 to more than 6 5 billion in fiscal year 2014 over the course of five years about 40 billion would be devoted to rail improvement across the country a massive expansion paid for with funds saved from ending military operations overseas this would be headlined by a 5 billion jump start stimulus for rail part of a 50 billion infrastructure package the administration is hoping congress will pay attention to rolling out of
