(Eng 805) into Opa-Locka. The
trainset got turned around from P647 at the airport. Normally it
would go out as P650, but the HEP on 803 dropped out, so the crews

Looking
at the "restricted area" of the Cab Car, no passengers
are allowed northbound because the Engineer is controlling (his
area is in the back right), most Conductors will keep this area
closed southbound too so they and the Whacknsuck Guards can have
workspace |

This is what the engineer sees when
he looks out. As you can tell there is very little between him and
anything he hits. So the likelihood is that if he hits anything he
is hauling ass out of the control room once he puts the train into
emergency |
