The National Transportation Safety Board shared its preliminary findings on the incident Thursday. The crash sent dozens of train cars off a bridge and onto I-25 below. Investigators say a broken rail caused the Burlington Northern & Santa Fe train, loaded with coal, to derail, killing a truck driver who\u2019d been crossing under the railroad bridge at that moment. The interstate had to be shut down for several days. Investigators say the train had actually been traveling below its suggested speed limit at the time. BNSF says it tested and inspected the track in the months before the crash, and had even inspected it the same morning, just hours before the collapse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
