The P40s remain at the MMC pending transfer to CDOT.

Article mentioned that the crew was to blame for the accident as they were not protecting the workers as the should have. That's the reason for the punishment. That doesn't hold too much water given the court results. The flagman provided the proper protections that he was supposed to. Conductor fl...
