OK...so the engineer has no memory of the crash and the black box didn’t work. Isn’t that the same thing that we heard following the crash in Philadelphia a couple of years ago?

"Dinh-Zarr said the train's engineer told investigators
the train was operating properly before it crashed
Thursday morning. The engineer also said the train was
operating at 10 mph as it approached the station. He
told investigators he has no memory of the accident."

The engineer can remember the train was operating properly,
and even the speed it was moving at
but the guy says he can't remember the accident.
I don't believe his memory loss story.

Without the black box evidence the National Transportation Safety Board can’t even be sure there was a train wreck.

I haven’t been following this too closely, but early on, there were witness reports that the Engineer appeared to have been slumped down over the controls as the train came into the station. Between that and the scale of the impact, I’m willing to give the engineer the benefit of the doubt for now; possible medical event, and even if not there’s still the possibility of injury from the crash.

Please do not allow this train incident to undermine your faith in the reliability of public transportation.
