At the rate of acceleration and compare that to normal parameters. that s part of what the analysis will do. is there any scenario that you can think of where a train would accelerate without like that from 70 to 100 in a placy it should not be accelerating without an engineer directing it to do so? well it would certainly be an abnormal situation. we re going to explore that possibility. is there any way that this train could have accelerated without engineer input. we ll look at that. and i know you said that teng near has agreed for an interview with the ntsb. the mayor of philadelphia toll me they did spend a lot of time with him but in that time he didn t really answer aany questions. do you know when this interview is going to happen? we expect to interview the engineer within the coming days. an exact date has not been ....
From 70 miles an hour to 100 miles an hour. is that something you can see happening there or anywhere? well i m not qualified on that particular rout. i m a diesel man washington south mostly. but with an electric engine they accelerate fast. you have a throttle that s just like the accelerator on your car. when you remove the foot from your accelerator in the car, your car slows down. when you move the throttle up you can t to gain speed. it does answer a question for me. i wonder after the train left 30th street across the river and headed uphill there. why the speed would have continued. i m glad to hear that there was some throttle manipulation because it indicates to me that he was there and he was able to control the movement of the train up to that point. still there s something that doesn t explain. he tried to stop it. but there s nothing in your mind that could explain why you would or a person would initiate such ....

Thank you, sir. it s an important detail because they need to get answers from this engineer. next we re going to talk about that issue. could criminal charges be brought against the engineer. and could existing technology have prevented this train from speeding up so fast the 70 to 1000 in just a minute. a special outfront report from inside the engineer s cabin. the patriots deflate gate is about losing weight not footballs apparently were for real. i am totally blind. i lost my sight in afghanistan but it doesn t hold me back. i go through periods where it s hard to sleep at night and stay awake during the day. non-24 is a circadian rhythm disorder that affects up to 70% of people who are totally blind. talk to your doctor about your symptoms and learn more by calling 844-844-2424. ....
