How in the flappity-flop can a train steer towards something else when it is off the tracks?

And how would one think this would work in the first place?

Train Engineer? Fool just screwed himself out of a well paying job, especially in this time.

He ended up 250 yards short of his target. That would be a long way to go when derailed.

Sounds like California needs to work on some train control legislation.

That close to the water, a couple cinder blocks and a small length of rope could have resolved this issue permanently...and quickly.
