On a beautiful stretch of California coastline, a suicidal mother parks her car on a railroad 
crossing and awaits the arrival of a speeding train, the sleek and unstoppable Coastal Starlight. 
Thus begins the story of two families in physical, emotional and psychological collision--of the 
victim's relatives and of the train engineer who couldn't possibly have stopped time.

==========

A deadly collision between a train and car lead to an unlikely bond between the train engineer and 
a young boy who escapes the carnage.
