On December 14, 1994, a westbound Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company intermodal train collided with the rear of a standing Union Pacific Railroad Company coal train near Cajon, California. The two crewmembers from the Santa Fe train were injured when they jumped from the moving train before the collision. Total estmated damages were $4,012,900. The safety issues discussed in the report are air brake testing in mountain-grade territory; management oversight of train handling practices; feed-valve braking; and two-way end-of-train devices.
