hello, everyone. >> i want to welcome our viewers from the united states and around the world. we begin in philadelphia with the latest on the amtrak train derailment that killed seven people. investigators are taking a closer look at the train's speed. >> cnn has learned the engineer was 32-year-old brandonl burke a and joins us live. >> the investigation is still going on late into the night at the crash site right wind me. we're learning more details about that 32-year-old engineer of the train that crashed at 106

miles per hour. yesterday, the engineer said he couldn't remember how fast the train was going, according to a source. today, he's staying tight lipped. federal investigators hope this man, brandon bostian may know why an amtrak train jumped the track causing a deadly crash. >> it was probably a few seconds. you could see it pounding. when i was pounding in the back of my head, i was like, maybe this is. in the moment that, like, we -- it was like i'm alive. >> it appears speed is a factor. preliminary data shows the train was traveling more than 100 miles per hour as it approached a turn just before it derailed. that's double the speed limit. passengers speculating the engineer tried to make up time because the train left the station late. the mayor says he puts the blame on bostian. >> you don't endanger passengers

by trying to make up time. i'm sure the seven people that have lost their lives, i'm sure they would not have minded being another 20, 25, 30 minutes late as opposed to dying unnecessarily in the train wreck. >> as the investigation into this crash continues, friends and family of the victims remember those who will never be seen again, like 20-year-old justin zemser, a midshipman who was simply on his way home. >> this tragedy has shocked us all in the worst way and we wish to spend this time grieving with our close family and friends. >> now, even though you heard the mayor criticizing the actions of that engineer, the ntsb, the spokesman telling us that he thinks the mayor's words are inflammatory. we do know that the engineer has almost a decade of experience at amtrak. reporting live from philadelphia, samuel burke. back to you. >> thanks, samuel. just more on the engineer while we have you.

we understand that there's a lot of focus on the engineer, the engineer's speed. do we know where he is tonight? and also, the police are now taking a closer look at his cell phone records. what more do we know about that? >> well, we know he spokes to them yesterday, but today he wasn't saying anything to them. and it looks like he's laying low. i've been looking at his facebook profile. sometime in the past 24 hours, he changed his profile picture to a blank back picture and there's no longer access to his photos. we do know, as in many of these cases whether it's an airplane that's missing or in this case, the crash, people want to see investigatores and what to see what's happening on his cell phone. police are telling us they're tight to get a warrant to get access to his cell phone. that might give us clues as to whether he's using his cell phone at the last minute, if he was distracted by his cell phone. and the ntsb, the national

transportation safety board is telling us that they're hoping to speak with him in the next 24 hours as well as the other crew who was on the train with him when this train derailed. >> and, sam, the ntsb, they now have the event recorder and the front end camera. besides speed, which we've talked about quite a lot, what else can the event recorder tell us about what happened? >> it tells them much more about that, about the throttle, the brake. and it's interesting because these cameras don't just show the train, they also show the area around the train, if there was something that could have affected not only the train, but the driver. and also, it will show them the track. so if there was a problem on the track that maybe prevented the engineer from breaking, this camera can show that. think of it as maybe a gopro that you see on so many devices these days that's going to give them more insight into what happened and, really, a true snapshot of those final moments before this train went off the track. >> sam, it's just after 1:00

here in the morning eastern time in philadelphia. what's the latest on the removal of the debris from the tracks removing those carriages. where are they taking them and how much more work do they have to do on that? >> we're just seeing what looks like the final group of these very large semis coming out and we're getting a clearer and clearer vision, shot, of the actual crash site. the ntsb tells us they're removing these train cars, and it looks like there's only two of them, taking them and removing them to a secure location where they can inspect them and glean more information. it's quite interesting, looking at the cars on the track, that's how they were able to figure out that it was moving 106 miles per hour. so it's really incredible what these investigators can find out just by looking at these train cars. >> yeah. they have a lot of experience in piecing the accidents together, sadly a lot of experience. samuel burke, live for us at this hour in philadelphia. thanks, sam. so the chaos began tuesday night and hour by hour we continue to learn more details about the

crash. there were terrifying stories from those who were on board. >> cnn's anderson cooper takes a look at what we know starting from the very beginning. >> wait judges university before 9:30 tuesday night when the amtrak train derailed. >> the passenger train has rolled over. >> catapulting passengers and sending seven train cars and the engine off their track. >> shoved down. the entire northeast corridor. >> amtrak 188 departed philadelphia's 30th street station at about 9:10, bound for new york with 238 passengers and five crew on board. less than 15 minutes into the ride, passengers say they felt something was wrong. >> you feel this boom and you don't think that much except the train doesn't bump. and the next thing is a harder shape shake. then by the third time, you knew there was -- the train was derailing.

>> the surveillance footage at 9:23 briefly captured the train passing by. moments later, flashes can be seen as it hurdles off the track. >> so many head injuries and, you know, bloody faces and, you know, people were really injured. they were thrown out of their seats. there was you get i could do to help except just talk to the people. >> the train was traveling the northeast corridor, the busiest areas of commute er rail traffic in american with over 2,000 daily trains. over 11 million passengers travel from d.c. to boston in 2014 on their trains alone. >> it is an absolute disastrous mess. never seen anything like this in my life. >> speed was a concern early on for investigators due to the type of damage sustained. the sharp turn had called for a speed of just 50 miles per hour. but by this afternoon, the ntsb confirmed speeds doubling that. >> the train was traveling at

approximately 106 miles per hour. three seconds later, when the data to the recorder's terminated, the train speed was 102 miles per hour. >> causing many to question if the crash had been due to human report. >> anderson cooper, cnn, philadelphia. the investigation into what caused the derailment is just getting under way. peter, during these times of investigations, is it normal for the engineer to refuse to give a statement, to lawyer up and clam up, if you like? >> no, it's -- it's unusual, but it's not unheard of. clearly, with the evidence from the event recorder, that showed him entering the turn at over 105 miles per hour, there are only a few explanations for that to have occurred. and they're not good.

>> so he -- but if we take out the human factor, what else could cause the train to be traveling at twice the speed limit? >> well, the human factor is the central point here. you know, you could have a stuck throttle, but that would have shown up in the event recorder and it was not -- by the ntsb. i mean, there simply is no other explanation other than a human factor issue. >> is there a safety margin for these trains? can they travel above that 15 miles per hour limit and do this, they know they think speed is a limit to a certain amount? >> of course there is. there's always a safety margin. and he probably could have cleared that turn going 70 or 75 miles per hour. but the reason that speed limit

is put in place is because the ntb know which trains are using that track and they know where to stay. then it was going twice as fast, over twice as fast but simply unexpected. >> there's a lot of talk, if positive train control had been in operation here, this crash may not have happened. but even without that safety system in place, wouldn't there have been warnings on the plane, the alarms ringing that it was traveling too fast? >> well, there wouldn't have been an internal alarm on that. but what's clear is you're hiring an engineer to pay attention to his job. he's taking responsibility for -- you have hundreds of passengers each day and we all expect him to pay attention. in this case, had positive train control been in place and it's in place over much of the

northeast corridor where this train runs, it's simply not in place at that section. and i can explain why. that it wasn't there, really should have underscored that the engineer had to play close attention. >> i guess when you take a look at the crash site and the investigation is going to take, how long will it take before there's an official report? >> 2 ntsb will issue a preliminary report sometimes in the next three or four days. they will issue a further preliminary report usually within 30 days. but the entire investigation will likely take one year. and it may involve a public hearing, as well. >> peter, good to speak with you. thank you. some good inside there. >> and the original deadline for the positive train control is this year.

when you have tragedies like this, can we afford to wait another five years for those safety device? >> the other thing is amtrak is heavily subsidized. and there are people who don't want to spend another penny. >> incredibly expensive. minorities have not ruled out to fine the site. five of the seven people killed have now been identified. >> 20-year-old justin zemser was a midshipman at the naval academy. 28-year-old jim gaines worked for the associated press. he was returning from washington survived by his wife and two children. >> rachel jacobs, the ceo of a small tech company, she is behind her husband and a 2-year-old son. abid gilani was a senior investment of wells fargo hospitality finance. >> and dr. derrick griffith was

a dean of student affairs at medgar hers college. he is survived by his son. some families are waiting for word of their loved ones the. >> and that includes the family of bob gildersleeve, an executive who lives with his wife and two teenage children. >> there were more than 200 people injured in the crash. most have been released, but some are still in critical condition. >> well, you can imagine with the magnitude of a collision such as this that there is going to be tremendous injury, head injuries, rib fractures, orthopedic fractures. and what we have heard at many of the local hochts, is this is what they want to pay for, this is emergency personnel are ready to go, to take care of first

responders. sara, when you arrived, did passengers knows what was? were they disoriented? >> confused and had a lot of anxiety as to exactly what happened. they were just complaining that they heard a lot of loud noises and things got dark and they didn't really know what exactly was going on. so kind of re-orienting them was part of our treatment. you know, i heard that you said when you got here you helped someone, a passenger was hanging from the ceiling. explain that. how was -- describe that. what do you mean? >> when she got to the hospital, she was in the back of a police car and we took her out and she said that be was physically -- her legs were trapped in the ceiling of the amtrak car and she was unable to free herself and she had to wait for rescue crews to come in and get her. which for the her seemed to take forever. >> she was basically hanging

upside down? >> yeah.. >> my goodness. >> she sustained a lot of chest and abdominal injuries as well as lip hip fractures, pelvic injuries, things like that. >> do you know what happened to her? >> well, when she got to temple hospital, she was obviously severely injured, but she was alert and oriented. and still conscious of her surroundings. that's obviously good for her, but i am unsure as to how she's doing tonight. >> hope she's okay. danielle, one of the patients you were treat hg a heart attack on the way to the hospital? >> as they were arriving, we were taking them out of the police unit. they were showing sign oefs a myocardial infarction. >> you were out here and you saw what happened, when you think of

dr. gupta, what went on here, seven people lost their lives here, it is amazing that as many people survived. >> we were very fortunate in philadelphia that we have a multitude of trauma centers. locally where this crash happened, temple university, hahnemann hospital, we're very fortunate there wasn't much more injuries. >> we are come back in just a moment and have much more on the train crash ahead.

engineers. >> yes. >> so you know what they're going through. you know what they're dealing with on a daily basis. take us through right now what it would feel like going around a bend at about 50 miles per hour. >> okay. >> you can tell what it feels like. it's pretty controlled. right? how would you describe it? >> well, it's kind of like going from a sports car to a really big truck, all right? in a sports car, you have a sense of how fast you're going. once you get into a big truck, you may be going 80 miles per hour, but it feels like you're only going like 40. >> so this is 50 miles per hour, again, going around or approaching the bend, at least, still very controlled. you go on this one, let's see, i want to go around the bend again and get what it feels like at about 75 miles per hour. what would be the difference. so this bend right now we're going in, we're up to 66, i can see. so it already feels faster.

yeah. >> even though we're not moving, i can feel it's faster. >> i want to know what it feels like with the emergency brake full force. what would we get a sense of if we did that right here at about 70 miles per hour. >> well, i'll show you. >> so that's full force on the brakes at just 60 miles per hour. and we're still going. >> yeah. yeah. that's -- you can't apply the brakes any harder than that. >> and it still doesn't stop automatically. it takes time, no matter what speed you're going. >> yes. a fully loaded brake train, roughly 80, 85 cars, takes over a mile to stop. >> all right. so now let's take it around the bend as fast as we can go. this might have been going about

106 miles per hour. let's see what this one does. >> we'll see how close we can get it. >> we're going so fast, we're going to derail right here. >> yes. right on that curve right there. >> okay. >> okay. so explain that. why would it derail? >> why it derails is because there's so many force at -- when you're going around that curve that that locomotive become top heavy and it just rolls over. too much centrifugal force. >> and all the people inside described laptops falling, people falling on top of them, one woman described a couple of people above her had gotten stuck in the luggage rack. does 234i of that surprise you going around the bend at that speed? >> not at all. not at all. we were only going -- 72 1/2.

so, yeah, you have 30 more miles per hour to that, there's a lot of horse there. people will be thrown around. >> frightening when you think about what those passengers experienced when they went around that bend. the amtrak crash is having major impact on travelers up and down the u.s. east coast. hundreds of thousands of people use that route every single day. >> yeah. now that passenger trains have been is up suspended from philadelphia, in manhattan, commuters are scrambling to try and get to where they want to be. >> tonight, there are crippling spillover effects for travels all over the eastern united states who are hoping to ride along amtrak's northeast corridor, but had to find alternative transportation. >> it is five or six hours to the station and it is full. it's packed. >> people standing in line after line after hours, hoping they're lucky enough to get the next bus, train or ride back home.

that's why i'm here in line right now to find out how i'm going supposed to get back home. >> amtrak's northeast corridor is the busiest in the country carrying passengers between waudz and boston. today, trains between philadelphia and man hattant are suspended. a delay on this line is a major disruption for the region, the northeast wore car hosts 11.6 million riders a year, 750,000 trips a day and more than 2,000 trains total including freight. today, that's all come to a halt. >> passengers scrambled aboard bus is, quickly selling out. not a single ticket left on the bus traveling from d.c. to new york. greyhound buses -- as. s announced they would honor amtrak tickets. >> we're running as many buses as we can possibly put together. >> commercial airlines tried to pick up some of the slack. at reagan's washington international airport, delta

airline reported an increase in bookings. american airlines added a two round trip flights in order to handle the delays and more. >> you know, people -- and we're inconvenienced a little bit. it's okay. >> still to come here on cnn, a routine train -- comes to a terrifying end as we will hear one survivor's story when we return. good. very good. you see something moving off the shelves and your first thought is to investigate the company. you are type e*. shorten the distance between intuition and action. e*trade.

welcome back, everybody. you're watching cnn's special coverage of the amtrak train derailment early indications are the train was traveling too fast when it went off the rails killing seven people. >> what they don't know is whether it was human error or mechanical problems. jason carol reports from philadelphia. >> the mangles wreckage of train 188 is still on the track. date recording from the train's first car has revealed the train wag traveling at least as fast as it should have been. 106 miles per hour. as it entered the corner where it derailed late tuesday. >> just moments before the derailment, the train was placed into engineer induced braking. this means that the engineer applied full emergency -- full emergency brake application. the train was traveling at

approximately 106 miles per hour. three seconds later, when the data to the recorders terminated, the train speeds was 102 miles per hour. >> the train, scheduled to leave philadelphia's union station at 9:10 tuesday night, derailed about ten minutes later, at 9:211. passengers say it felt like the train was going too fast as it headed into a left hand turn, then chaos. >> they were thrown out of their seats. one girl slammed into one of the seats. there were a lot of fractures, you know, arm and shoulders, all kinds of fractures. >> i could see the blood on people's faces. they can't move. their knee is -- so i just tried to do my best to help people get out of that car because there was smoke. >> surveillance video shows the flash the moment of the crash. mary rowe was near the site and initially thought it was

lightning. >> my entire room lit up. it was that bright. got the dog .myself and got out of the house. >> many questions about the train's speed as it headed into that curve, an area called the frankford junction. >> locals call this junction a notorious curve. the speed limit in this area just 50 miles per hour. at least seven people killed in the crash including u.s. naval academy midshipman justin zemser, and jim gaines with the associated press. he was 28. many people were hurt when other people or objects fell on top of them. >> a huge, red suitcase just came flying at me. our train was actually on its side, so it pushed me on to the side of the train and hit me chest. i think i have a few fractured ribs. >> jason carroll reporting there. let's go live to the crash site

at this hour. sam, we've been talking about removl of the carriages and essentially clearing the tracks. what v situation now? >> we've been seeing the last of the semi-trucks leaving the scene. it does look like the last of the train cars on those tracks, ntsb tells us they're moving them to a secure location where they can analyze them. it's absolutely fascinating what they've already been able to learn not even looking at the data recorder's or black boxes. they were able to determine the speed, 106 miles per hour, as we've been hearing of these -- of the train just by looking at these train cars. so it looks like they're in the final stages of the investigation, which is still going on right behind me at the crash site. >> and, sam, we're looking at some live pictures there behind you of the tracks. it appears as though workers on the track are fixing the tracks, as you mentioned some of those cars are being carried off. i want to talk about brandon

bostian. give us a sense of what we know about him, especially in terms of his experience as a train engineer. >> well, we know he started with amtrak in 2006 as a conductor and in 2010 he moved up to be an engineer. so he has almost a decade of experience. what we know about what happened, he was going 106 miles per hour. the train was. and he tried to put on the brakes at the last second according to officials. but it was just too late. we know that after that he was treated at a local hospital and then he spoke to police initially yesterday. but today when they sat down to interview him again, he didn't say anything to them and he let me tell wileft with his lawyer. on social media, he blocked up some of his social media and changed his profile picture to a blank black picture.

>> they're now trying to work on repairing those tracks, is that an indication that they're trying to get some service up and running? >> we just got word from amtrak that they're going to have some delayed service tomorrow, intermittent service tomorrow, but only on certain lines. they're going to open up the line from philadelphia to washington, d.c. remember, the train was coming from d.c. supposed to be going to new york when it crashed. they're also going to open up the route between new york and boston, but they're still keeping closed the route between philadelphia and new york. and if zovn this area, there are lots of people who either live in both cities or commute daily between both cities. so this is a real headache for a lot of the commuters. they're going to have to use other modes of transportation, vans, buses or work from this area. but we still don't know when that will open up or if it will even open up by this weekend. >> okay, sam, we appreciate you staying with us.

it's on 11:35 in the morning here on the east coast. thanks, sam. when we come back, reports say a top north korean officials was executed by anti-aircraft gunfire. now, new evidence shows it's not the first time the regime has used such brutality. and people in nepal are living in tents, afraid to go home after a second major earthquake. why they're thinking those homes could be in trouble and we will have the latest on the philippines after a deadly fire there killed more than 40 people. those details, when we come back. why do we do it? why do we spend every waking moment, thinking about people? why are we so committed to keeping you connected? why combine performance with a conscience? why innovate for a future without accidents?

were not able to return home. that continues to arrive here. their loved ones did not, after that tragic incident and the local government is still expecting this number to rise as more cadavers are still inside this structure. in fact, some photos show factory workers trapped inside the building during the fire. as of now, we also managed to have a -- inside the burned structure and we saw several bodies being brought down from

the second floor. we also saw members of -- he from the scene. and fire officials say that observation we have yet to see any violation of the building in relation to the fire code, but the one possible cause that investigator res looking into is a possible park from repairs on the ground floor of the factory. and that shows introducing the slippers and they believe most victims -- from both chemicals. as of now, very few operations. >> it's a crucial piece of information there. he updated us on the death toll and that answers another question. are there any survivors? and if so, what condition are they in?

>> 58 bodies were already removed from the factory. that number is still expected to go up. [ indiscernible ]. the bodies are being brought. they are in a state of shock. they're still hoping, somehow, that their loved ones are not one of those brought here and hopefully they managed to survive the incident. >> this is a footwear factory, from local production only or was it being run by any national company? >> this was a slipper factory

here and supplying slippers all over the country. >> so in terms of this fire, you say there were chemicals inside that building, which is one reason why this fire spread so quickly? >> that's correct. that's correct. that's what we heard from fire officials is that there are combustible materials inside that building. that's why the fire spread so fast. those inside the structure were not able to get out except for a few who managed to get out of that building. >> we thank you for that. george cahiles from our affiliate in the philippines. another story, this one out of north korea, there's

uncertainty over the state of the north korean regime. this of course happening after south korea's intelligence reported the execution of the nation's defense minister. they say he was killed by anti-aircraft guns. it's not the first time the regime has used such brutality to kill its rebels. images show a public execution of a group of people sometime last october. also by anti-aircraft gunfire. lawmakers say people are killed for general disobedience. and he was seen dozing off in a meeting organized by the leader himself. >> what does this execution mean

to north korea? >> he was a survivor. he was from kim jung un's fathers regime. this kind of a shake yumm, particularly when executed, is quite a remarkable turn of events. >> so what did that say to you? all this seemed to be his attitude for the generals, the elites, were all hanged together or separately. do you think that's been fractured now? >> kim jong un seems to be leading separately from the way his father and the grandfather did. even from within the family, there's been a report that kim jong un's aunt has been

executed. she hasn't been seen for over a year. but they are sort of pushed out of the way and maintained silence for a long time. but he has shown a ruthless side that we haven't seen since his grandfather, going after rivals or potential rivals and having them executed. this is something we haven't seen in north korea for decades. >> charles armstrong, professor of korean studies at columbian university. now to nepal where the death toll from the most recent tremor stands at 96. 18 others were killed in india and china. >> meanwhile, nepalese and officials found no sign of a american helicopter that disappeared on tuesday. >> this army outpost is center of a search and rescue effort not only for the missing help
