Amtrak engineer linked to deadly Philadelphia crash
The 32 year old Amtrak engineer Brandon Bostian, obsessed with trains since youth, faced an investigation into the derailment that killed eight and injured over 200 in Philadelphia. Investigators say the train entered a sharp bend at 106 mph, with speed increasing to over 100 mph in the last minute. Authorities note no track or signal failures and plan interviews with Bostian as prosecutors consider charges.
