Gee, I wonder how did that windshield get cracked? The train was only doing about 105mph..
This thing even has tree branches embedded in the wipers among all kinds of other damage.

The entire right side of the engine sustained an impact so great, it compressed and deformed the right side body of the engine, right at the window frame.
Note how high the tree/large bush branches are embedded into the the front end. It even bent the left windshield wiper arm near the round shattered area (on our right).
Good photo!
The wipers are not even bent.
The left side of the engine (looking at the picture) is bent. The dashboard and some other stuff inside has been thrown forward.
That damaged to the windshield is more consistent to damage it would receive from the cable electrical catenary copper lines like a whip hitting that windshield after the engine has hit one or two cantenary poles.
There is a picture in day light of the whole right side of the train receiving damage and scrapping of that one side.
There is heavy damage to the frontal window pillor.
Not sure how reliable the information is about the data recorder showed that the brakes were applied right before he went into the curve going 106 miles an hour.
If he was committing suicide he must have lost his nerve at the last moment.
All of this evidence proves it.
Need to get a criminal interigator to interview him A.S.A.P.
All of these signs of damage is consistent of the engine hitting one or two catneray poles.
There is pictures of the passenger cars right behind the engine with a mangled up, twisted, bent canteray pole.
That is what finally hit that greatly mangled up passenger car.
Those poles are made of heavy iron steel I beams embedded into concrete.
It would take a lot of force to move or even bend those catenray poles.
The damage on the windshield is consistent of the cabling of the elctrical copper catenray lines hitting it like a whip.
Someone is lying to us.
Large dent with scratches. A stress crack where it is bolted to the frame. Four cracks from objects.
#16 Perhaps the railroad did not trim the brush growing between the rails. Yeah that would explain the branches.
Now if they can come up with why the train went from 80mph to 106mph in 1 minute besides already being 30mph over the 50mph speed limit in the first place.
How are they to explain that away?
