Old Film called " Unstoppable"

Yesterday I watched an old Denzel Washington film about how a group of railway workers in America prevented a major disaster by stopping a fast moving, unmanned train. It was exciting and emotional, especially when the 2 main character put their lives on the line to do this.

At the end of the film I was astounded to discover that it was a true story.... because they told the audience what happened, to the heroes of the tale, afterwards.

It was scary and so typical of people not making the right decisions, for stupid reasons.
How brave were the people who eventually stopped the disaster?

A great film which I have watched several times but like you Twink, I had no idea it was a true story.
