Thanks for the reminder Calvin, I foget the chatbox is much like a
"tweet-box" and an event like this would have all us rails trying
to figure it as the news comes forth. Wondering why after 2 days
that the head-end crew havent offered up an esplanation yet.
I've heard of some "real malfunctions" of the locomotive from
early reports of the "black-box" info. Mysterious loss of air and
mysterious speed approaching a known 30mph curve. Maybe
tomorrow it will all make sense.

Falling asleep at 82 mph before the next stop... Grand Central Station has to be the worst day ever on the job.
This was the story when I awoke Monday morning.
Late evening news say this stretch of track
is 30-35mph coming off a 70mph approach
speed. I cant figger out what happened by
the ariel views. People that get paid well
will come up with answer.
It was just a bloodbath: 4 dead, 63 injured in NYC train derail nightmare
