Re: A "sharp curve" - really?

YES
it's a sharp curve- behind where the train ended up.
Try google satellite view. Or a news pic from the start of the curve-
somewhat compressed by a tele lens but we all should be used to tele effects
Amtrak real time showed train 188 just west of the curve, speed 106,
so the AP check appears to be surprisingly accurate.
Sure wish the newsdopes could figure out Engineer and COnductor-
Reuters said Mr Szabo told them that PTC would have helped the conductor-
I'm sure Mr. Szabo didn't say conductor
[gee I hope he didn't]
