Viaduct collapse

Irish Rail was spectacularly lucky on Friday. What would have been the outcome if a train or two trains had been travelling on the viaduct at Broadmeadow Estuary at the time of collapse?

The locomotive driver deserves great praise for his action in slowing down his train. Not a word from him. No interview with him. Nothing. How that compares with the plane accident in the Hudson River when the pilot was named, interviewed and was recognised as a hero. Nothing of the sort from Irish Rail.
