remember those people who we lost this morning and their families and we'll let the first responders do their job. the ntsb will do the investigation. we'll tell you throughout the day what the consequences for service will be and when service will be restored. we need more information before we can make any hard determinations on that. again, i want to thank first responders who are doing a fantastic job right now and i want to thanks both commissioner ray kelly and the other commissioner for their help this morning. >> this train that derailed is one of the vital commuter links to the new york suburbs and in this case one of the ones along the hudson river. cnn's supervisor producer has more on that and, john, it's my understanding that you used to travel on this track very frequently. >> yes, good morning, joe. this was my train station to give you a picture as you said.
