Manuel Macias, a 31-year-old yoga instructor, had called his mother to say he missed the 2:20 p.m. train out of Union Station in Los Angeles. He would have to take the next one, he said. At 3:50 p.m., he called his aunt to say he would be home soon. When they heard about the crash, they called his phone repeatedly. No answer. They called three hospitals looking for him. No one had a record of him.
There is a memorial plaque dedicated in Chatsworth at Stoney Point Park, above a tunnel just west of where the trains collided. A similar plaque was dedicated earlier at Union Station in downtown Los Angeles.
