    You're very welcome. Its always nice to share a bit with people who are interested, the job entails much more than blowing the whistle.

      Unfortunatly, these things do happen. This past week, Caltrain (the train service between San Francisco and San Jose) hit a car and killed the driver. As it turns out, the driver ignored the warning gates and lights and went around the car stopped in front of him.
