Re: Amtrak Crash

The misaligned switch leads into the yard (Davis Products, Simplicity, National Standard etc.) is manually operated and is about 35 to 50 feet east of CP190 no ITCS on the yard switch, same as Ameriwood the old National Copper and a few other along the line. The switch is not very old.
