- The following video was taken when Amtrak 6 stopped at FMG. Powered by two GE P42dc locos, 56 and 196. This video was taken over a period of one and still longer than I wish. I hope you enjoy it. Make comments if you wish.
Just terrible that a staff member doing their job appears to have been injured by a passenger - pleased to see that the conductor was able to walk and was sitting up & talking to the ambulance crew - so hopefully he was only taken to the hospital as a precaution. So pleased this didn't happen (well in fact I feel this should never happen) when Mike set off on his epic train journey on #6
Dennis, Thank you for comments. My sentiments also. The perp has reported not be playing with full deck. He was 53 yrs old.
@RailsOfIllinois A summary of what happened would be helpful. This was 6 months ago.
and what town is FMG?
Fort Morgan, Colorado

Hope the assailant get banned from traveling on Amtrak what the hell is wrong with people these days. I hope the Amtrak conductor is okay and recovers well. I feel extremely bad for the conductor, crew, and fellow passengers.
Kirk, Dido on your comment. He was not playing with full deck.
This goes back in time....2 guys tried to rob my dad of his ticket money back in 1993 on metra....of course it was a different time my dad left them on the platform laid out, one was out cold....he left a note on one guys chest....don't mess with a Vietnam war vet....
I feel bad for the Amtrak people to
I wasn’t even alive in 1993 I was born in 2015
And right now I’m eight and it’s 2024
Praying the conductor will be ok, good people just doing their job
He is
And you get all the action stuff! A great catch of our police in action. And the AMTRAK folks as well.
Wow! What a night! Hope the conductor is ok. Pretty sure I've now seen Ollie, in the flesh! Bet the crew adrenalin is running high! Police sure stormed on and whooshed the bad guy off the train! Long time to stand out there! Thank you for your patience!
Jean
i was one of the medics that was there during this
Thank you for helping this poor guy!!
One day the news was reporting via helicopter that there was a disturbance on a metrolink train from an unruly passenger. He was shown being removed via 4 large officers in a hog-tied manner.
Dang Marne, that’s got to be the wildest thing caught out here!
My goodness. Our country is a powder keg. I hope the conductor is going to be ok.
These people used to be only found on locals and buses. But they are gone so.......And they were taken off the bar car at night!
Wow, holy shit! I was on this train. I was wondering what happened. Crew wouldn’t tell us anything.
The assailant's name is Abraham Sudberth.
The conductor was treated for minor injuries.
wow, I hope thar the Conductor will be ok,as well as the rest of the crew, and passigeners
Conductor was OK
I’m loving your videos buddy
Support the Blue 100%
Great videos
All to sad but familiar site unfortunately,seems since the Pandemic,incidents of air rage on planes and other incidents on public transportation have dramatically increased sadly,glad the conductor only sustained minor injuries if any!
Same here and delays the other train traffic to and from Denver and Beyond.
People that get violent should be banned for life from traveling by train, jet, Greyhound and ships.
I have to believe that committing a crime on an Amtrak train would be a federal charge?
Across state lines, no less.
I’m sure the assailant was telling everybody that he didn’t do nothin and that he knows his rights. Wanted every one’s badge number and name.
Hope He's OK
Hey Marne that was Ollie on the head end at the throttle
Yes
This is no less bizarre than similar attacks on flight attendants or airport gate personnel. I am sorry the conductor, other Amtrak personnel, and passengers experienced this awful attack! I sincerely hope the conductor has recovered and is back on board, earning his living - just as he had before being attacked. I was traveling on The Cardinal from Chicago to Washington when a drunken passenger started calling the employees the "n-word." He was dumped into a waiting police officer's arms at Lafayette, IN. Stupid s.oh-bee. I think Delta maintains a "no-fly list," I don't know about the FAA or any federal agency that main tains one. But I agree with other posters that Amtrak and the FAA should control a "no-travel list" of former passengers who cause any major disturbance - like attacking a conductor with a weapon or endangering a planeload of passengers. I hope it doesn't take a passenger bringing down a plane or attacking Amtrak personnel to establish such a list and make that establishment national news - as a warning.
Hope the crew is ok
Wow
Attacking a crew member of Amtrak especially a conductor is a huge NO NO
@ClarissaPacker: That should be a Federal Crime any attack to a conductor or engineer!!!
where is FMG? i hope the poor conductor recovered fully & the assailant was brought to justice!
What’s an “assailant”?
@@user-uj5ly1eq5n
An assailant is when a person attacks another person unprovoked in any manner, hence the term 'assault'. In this case, unfortunately, the conductor of this train was injured after an unruly passenger assaulted him. Nevertheless, to hurt someone who didn't do shit to you is one thing, but to do it to an Amtrak conductor or any train conductor affiliated with a state commuter rail authority is a major no-no.
I don't get people who do crap like that! What is wrong with people like that?
Jeez. Wonder what happened?
II believe it may have started in the Club Car or Diner why is unknown.
Why the long distance.
This could be Lagrange ILL is my guess. Let me know if I'm wrong. If in Lagrange ILL other trains such as METRA COMMUTER TRAINS and BNSF FREIGHT TRAINS must also be getting delayed as well.
What was the date this happened??

how does a person attack a conductor (a FEDERAL employee) and not get arrested?
Propibly because the conductor decided not to press charges, also, Amtrak became an independent non-governmental organization and only really gets money grants from the government, so there is the possibility that the Amtrak conductor isn’t considered a federal employee however that is unlikely because Amtrak was formed by the government and when a company is formed by the federal government (even after not being a part of the government) the employee’s tend to still be considered federal employees
No duh 😂 @@_that_native_artist_boy_
I’m sorry there tgat
Because the train crosses state lines, I would guess that a crime on board would be federal?
@robk1310 no it's not, state law prevails.
Pretty slow on response time from all concerned, could have been much worse if the attacker hadn't been subdued.
What stop is this?
That's what I'd like to know. I don't know an FMG other than Fort Morgan but I don't think that's on the California Zephyr route.
@@shauntrailskinner9645Those are identifier codes to identify the location. It's similar to how airports get their codes (IATA/ICAO). I can only find Fort Morgan with FMG as its code.
@@svscaredIt’s says “Ft. Morgan, CO” on the station sign plain as day although people should spell it out instead of assuming.
@@Prolificposter I didn't watch the entire 30 min video but I realized later that I was getting Fort Morgan, which is in Colorado and on the Zephry route, confused with Fort Madison, which is in Iowa on the Southwest Chief route so that is why I was initially puzzled.
Well of course it’s one of them
Feel for the crew. You just never know but if one sees something of concern reach out to a crew member. I see my attendant from my trip in the background. Conductors work segments . In all seriousness most respectable videographers don’t zoom in on patients. Those of us who were in EMS don’t talk shop it was not responsible to even visually identify this conductor. They have a hard job and have to deal with what ever arises during their time on the train.
it's one thing to record from a distance, but to actually zoom in on a patient, that's not respecting their privacy, whether they are in public or not. Shameful
Keith.. Tell that to George Floyd....🤔🤔🤔
ITS IN PUBLIC (not everyone, much to my dismay, can see things as cleary as I believe others do)
@@somethingsomeonesaid6455 who else is out there, literally no one that can be seen, if so its nothing compared to the potential numbers of people that will now see.
@@stephenthompson439 Floyd wasn't a patient. He was a criminal.
Public is public. No right to privacy there. So you are wrong.
So I too hope the assailant is banned from Amtrak if he was wrong. But I’m telling you Conductors can be real real assholes when they don’t need to be. During the Plandemic they had power w masks. Their true selves came out.
Come on Fire. Get a freaking uniform on. WTF ? Board shorts? Shameful
They may well be a volunteer EMS crew.
