:::: Yes flaws are pointed out, but we don't need literally half a page of "how a train/air brakes" operates.

Transcript

Does this video really need a transcript? It doesn't really have voice acting and the Plot Summary sums it up anyways. User:ClockworkSpirit2343/TalkSignature December 9, 2014.

I also think it's not necessary, but let's see how will be the final decision. --File:User Tark sig.jpgFile:User Tark sig2.jpgFile:User Tark sig3.jpg 15:16, 9 December 2014 (PST)

Notes

Do we really need a section that is effectively just pointing out what would have happened on a regular train? In my opinion it is quite irrelevant what normal safety measures exists, since this was a deliberate action. They would have gotten rid of stuff that would have prevented their plan.--Henke37 (talk) 04:56, 10 December 2014 (PST)

I agree. Pointing out really specific flaws is unnecessary. And anyways, the dead man brake thing isn't even a thing at the time the video takes place. "Older locomotives produced before 1995 do not carry this feature." ErnieTheGreatest (talk) 17:30, 10 December 2014 (PST)
Did you really have to wipe out that entire note? Air brakes were definitely available by 1900. 1230james (talk) 19:24, 12 December 2014 (PST)
Once again, we don't need to point out everything that happens on a real train. This is a fictional video, so why point out facts about a train in which no one really finds interesting? Ashes (talk) 19:28, 12 December 2014 (PST)
