  • Train Wreck History - When the System Says Go and Means Stop
    2026/04/20
    Join host Felix Mercer as he examines the 2008 Chatsworth train collision that killed 25 people when a distracted engineer ran a red signal. This episode explores how railway safety systems can technically function perfectly while disasters still occur, analyzing degraded-mode operations, the automation paradox, and why fail-safe design principles sometimes fail anyway. Felix dissects the psychological gap between systems-as-designed and systems-as-operated.

  • Train Wreck History - The Deregulation Paradox
    2026/04/20
    Felix Mercer examines how American rail safety dramatically improved after 1980's economic deregulation — the opposite of what critics predicted. The episode covers the FRA's creation, the Staggers Rail Act, and explores why loosening economic controls while maintaining safety standards led to 83% fewer accidents, challenging assumptions about regulation and infrastructure investment.
