Update: Looks like BTMRR was up and running last night in a limited capacity. After reading more about the report it looks like this last accident was really a series of unfortunate circumstances that happened in a row.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, the runaway train themed coaster at Disneyland, CA, is expected to return to operation soon. This after the third accident in a less than a year and the second involving injury or death. Apparently the report issued by Cal-OSHA lays the blame on the poorly trained employee and a track that lacks enough failsafes to prevent this sort of accident. Whether the ride will resume operation before more failsafes can be implemented remains to be seen.
As of this morning (Saturday), Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is running again. Cast members say it was running last night as well.
