train. so they were running in, and, you know, trying to get them t out. amtrak saying the train was not using the technology positive train control that can be used to prevent derailments. bring in scott live. good to talk to you this morning. what more are we learning about the cause of this crash, why it was traveling at 80-mile-per-hour when it should have been going 30. well, that s the big question, yasmin. it s something the national transportation safety board team which only got here late last night is going to be looking into. as you said, they were able to determine the speed. they did that quickly. they found the black box on one of the locomotives. determined indeed the train was going 80-mile-per-hour in a 30-mile-per-hour zone. this track is configured so the engineer has to slow the train down from 80 miles an hour down to 30 miles an hour to make that
