A 2023 train crash in Montreal that injured six people highlights the immediate need for backup safety mechanisms that can prevent collisions or derailments, the Transportation Safety Board said in an incident report Tuesday.
Safety board chair Yoan Marier told an Ottawa news conference that trains must be equipped as soon as possible with interim fail-safe devices until a more robust system can be implemented.
