   Today ABC and CBS news reported that the NTSB has called in the FBI to   
   investigate.  According to an earlier Phial Inqr article, if accurate, at   
   least _two_ other trains in the area, an Aclela and a SEPTA, were hit by   
   something.   
      
   Hopefully they'll thoroughly interview all involved train crews and study any   
   nearby video more carefully.
