I know nothing about something's but a video record might be just what the insurance company might find useful in retrospect..
What an insurance company finds useful, and what is helpful to the crew in the discharge of their duties, are two different things.
Yes, video can be helpful with insurance companies. This video, for example, was quite helpful in showing that the train/crew was not at fault.
Notice that a camera mounted on the coupler facing forward would have been completely useless.
The question is now, should a video camera be mounted on every car, facing outward? In addition to cameras facing forward and behind? Do we need to make sure the entire train is covered by video feed? How many video cameras do you suggest we mount to help the insurance companies?
