Further reading suggests that:
- While they were inspecting the track they let 3 trains go by
- That track is a passenger route (VIA Rail)
- The maintenance workers had to be transported out by helicopter
- It took 2 days to reopen the track
- It’s possible that this could have gone undetected because the S&C cables on the left don’t appear to be damaged.
No kidding. That Andy Warhol gem about “In the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes” isn’t a carved-in-stone guarantee that those 15 minutes will give you eternal life or wealth. Morons are everywhere. Most of them put themselves on video.
