And just to clarify: the engineers are all considered mechanics and are paid as such, which is a very different, and higher, pay scale than the ones operating rides and registers in the park.

And most of those also get paid better than minimum wage, especially in the last couple of years with the rise in wages everywhere.

The mechanic was killed because of their own negligent actions (they didn't lock out when they were in a safety secured area like they were supposed to). That has nothing to do with the train.

If you know anything about the train then you have a clue about how meticulous those engineers and workers are with it

Maybe find out what happened first before making broad judgements?
