Computer hack Amtrak crash in Philadelphia involving train heavily used by politicians
By JIM STONE
Outside interference with the train's automated controls is the only explanation for this one.
Am Amtrak train went off the tracks while going 106 miles an hour in the immediate approach to a 50 mph curve. Early reports said there was a huge explosion before derailment but I do not know what to make of them because people on the train have not said anything about an explosion.
It looks like a scrap yard, not a train wreck and only 7 people died?
YEAH RIGHT!
This was probably caused by a Terror hack
The trains are computer controlled with the conductor in a supervisory position, and that leaves serious room for questioning how one hit a 50 mph curve at 106 mph when it should have slowed down for it automatically.
AND this happened right after it left a station, which means if there was a curve that close it should not have sped up at all. The whitewash is on now,
And guess what?
Another computer controlled subway train in Mexico City came into a station yesterday and rear ended another train at full speed.
They explained it away as communication glitches and wet tracks but what a coincidence! The subway trains were amazingly shredded (like I never thought that could ever happen) and I suspected the same hackers played a game even before this latest Amtrak crash.
The Amtrak crash happened so soon after the train left the station that tickets had not been collected yet.
One man said "We were rolling along nice and smooth and then all of a sudden we were on our side"
Which is exactly what would happen if all the train did was accelerate to a point of doom.
Try a 50 mph turn at 106-mph. If you are asleep in the back seat (the perspective of all passengers) you will be going along nice and smooth and just "suddenly" (fill in the blank) There are other reports, such as it wobbled and went off the tracks, the brakes were hit and it went off the tracks, but this is what would be felt in the back of the train as the front flew off the tracks.
Most likely the man who said it was all smooth and then the car was on its side was probably near the front.
106 is not fast for this particular train, which travels at up to 150 mph.
The problem was that it hit a 50 mph curve at 106.
If this was not a threat and was instead an actual assassination attempt, it seems it probably failed.
One car got the brunt of the action and was mangled beyond belief but 5 were in fairly good condition afterwards.
Not bad for 106 mph. It could have been worse.
I am going to stick with the original statements because we all know what happens with the white wash.
BUT I WILL SAY THIS: Think back to the time frame prior to 6 or 7 years ago. Most of the the bad train accidents happened 100 years ago, then going into the 1960's they were practically unheard of. By the time we got to the 1990's it all became so safe that problems such as trains on the wrong track and trains going the wrong speed were nonexistent, it never happened because UN HACKED computers controlled it all.
Why now, after the illustrious Stuxnet was invented have we returned to a train accident frequency similar to what happened in the 1800's?
GOOD QUESTION.
