San Francisco, California (CaymanMama.com) — On Friday, September 13th, a Metrolink passenger train carrying 222 passengers between Los Angeles and Moorpark, north-west of the city, slammed into a Union Pacific freight train, killing 25 people and injuring more than 130 passengers.

The engineer of the Metrolink commuter train never applied the brakes even after he bypassed a red signal, allegedly causing the deadliest train accident in the United States in 15 years. Federal investigators have discovered that the engineer was texting a message on his cell phone prior to the accident.
