This happened July 5th and the reward has just been doubled. I had no idea this even happened.

Spread the word! The idiots who did this need to be brought to justice.

We have had 2 bad Amtrack Metrolink crashes here in So Cal in the past few years. One guy who was trying to commit suicide parked his Jeep Cherokee on the tracks (but then chickened out and ran away) that caused a derailment. Then there was the Amtrack Metrolink train that hit a freight train head on because the driver was texting while driving and missed a red signal. Both were nasty messes.
