an Inqr article discusses the issues involved in prosecuting the Amtrak   
   engineer.  It would not be easy to do.  Other cases are cited, such as the   
   Metro North accident:   
      
   "Last week, however, New York City prosecutors decided not to charge a   
   commuter rail engineer who fell asleep as his Metro-North Railroad train took   
   a curve at 82 mph in 2013. William Rockefeller was later found to have sleep   
   apnea. His lawyer argued    
   that the rail line had failed to maintain its equipment or screen employees   
   for medical problems before the fatal crash."
