This disaster could have been prevented with automatic braking systems that has been first recommended 70 years ago by federal safety officials.

Metrolink made a gamble in 20 years ago by sharing the rails with the two giant freight lines and rejecting to employ a automated braking system making it the world's deadliest railroad in the decade.
