Yes, bro. But the engineer was going too fast, bro, and couldn’t stop.

“An engineer was driving an Amtrak passenger train too fast in Washington state on Sunday and caused it to derail as it headed northwest, officials said Thursday.
Amtrak spokeswoman Vernae Graham said an investigation found that the train failed to slow down to the 40 mph (64 kph) speed limit while approaching the Chambers Bay drawbridge,”

Hey bro. Speeding is speeding, bro. In both cases the engineer was not on top of things. The NTSB should have noticed this pattern in Amcrash Crashcades train operators and said, “hmmmm.” Instead they blamed insufficient training on the new Defiance Bypass route.
