you may be correct, but the grain train made no attempt to contact the oil train till it was passing.

If I may speak to the location of the Casselton collision video...

The crude oil train (eastbound) has just transitioned from the Jamestown Sub to the KO Sub. The Jamestown Sub was Track Warrant Control at the time of the crash. The KO Sub was CTC. It would be my understanding (and common practice at this location) that the crude oil train was using Jamestown Sub AAR channel 39 in an attempt to clear their Jamestown Sub track warrant, while the grain train (and likely the maintainer) were on AAR 70, the correct radio channel for the KO Sub. At the point of impact, the two trains are on different radio channels, and did not have direct radio contact with each other, or the maintainer.
