BS !

Those windshields have to withstand impacts daily from bird strikes, rocks, even bullets.

Show us the actual windshields and damage.

I have been on those engines and saw for my self bird strikes.

Show us the actual injury on the engineer’s head and face.

I heard somewhere the windows in the engines are bullet-proof. Don't know if that is true.

If this train was hit it would have been the third train in the Philadelphia region to be have experienced that type of damage within a 30 minute or so window of time. Projectiles breaking windows on trains are so incredibly rare statistically it makes perfect sense for the FBI to investigate whether the separate incidents on the other trains had anything to do with this particular incident.
