So i think many people know there was a train that left brain tree this morning that was unmanned, passed through four stations, stopped, passengers were let off. Thankfully nobody was hurt. The train itself was determined it was it was unmanned and traveling from brain tree within a couple minute thes when it left much the power on the third rail was should off at that point in time but the train coasted because it had moment em at that point forward through several stations before it came to a stop. Inspection of the train determined that some of the controls had been manipulated and there is an Ongoing Investigation that involves folks from the nbta from dot from what we can tell at this point, it appears to be an isolated incident. Governor is the fbi involved in the investigation to your knowledge . To my knowledge at this point they are not involved. I believe its Public Safety dot and the nbta. You said this morning it was tampered with. Manipulated with, tampered with. Its pretty clear that it was set in Forward Motion which is why it moved in the first place when the signal was manipulated. But as i said, within a couple minutes of it leaving the third rail was turned off and it coasted through several stations. The motor man who was what was his role to the best of your knowledge, it was something wrong with the train, got out to check it, is that something with the signal check the signal. And then it went forward. Last question. Something to do with the tampering. The investigation is going to obviously involve questions, people are talking to him and theyll talk to others as well. But i dont want to draw conclusions about that until the investigation is further along. Are people safe look, this is as i said at this point we believe this is an isolated incident and i think the system overall is running on normal schedule and in a normal way. This particular incident is being investigated on its own. But as i said within a couple minutes of that train leaving the station they cut the pow you are. To the best of your knowledge, is it conceivable, governor, this motor man put something in gear, oh, i mistake. I dont want to get too i think the big question at bill, is the right one. Take place on our end is going to be negligence versus something else, right . Is tampering a question . Its pretty clear the main control that drives the train was testimony perked with. But as bill just said i think the big issue on this is whether it was a negligence issue or something else. Thanks, everybody. Thank you. Thank you.
