7:04 am
bostian. the investigation says the train was traveling at 106 miles an hour, more than double the speed at that section. the engineer applied the brakes moments before but it did little to slow it down. >> clearly he was reckless and irresponsible in his actions. i don't know what was going on with him. i don't know what was going on in the cab, but there's really no excuse that could be authored. >> reporter: bost yan lives in queens, new york and has been an amtrak engineer since 2010. his attorney tells the news he has no memory of the accident. >> he remembers driving the train, going through that area but has absolutely no recollection of the incident or anything unusual. >> after the crash he was treated with injuries and taken to the police station. he declined to make a statement before leaving with his lawyer and as of wednesday he had yet to speak with ntsb
7:05 am
investigators. i wanted to ask you the significance of the amount of speed the train had going over this curve. >> the train has gov around the curve many time as day and they don't derail. here we have one twice the speed and it derails. >> reporter: surveillance video shows the train moments before it went off the tracks. the camera captured the electrical sparks from the crash. on wednesday rescuers expanded the search area. one survivor suffered injuries to his right arm. he remembers chaos inside the train. >> there was a girl that ended up -- where you put your luggage, she hit her head and ended up there and i had to help her l can't believe i was on that train. >> amtrak has been in the process of installing mandated technology that would have allowed it to slow down a speeding train. the ntsb told me had that technology been installed here

7:09 am
i think finding out the speed of the train was a very significant discovery. we hope to be able to interview the engineer very soon. we look forward to the opportunity to hear from them. today's going to be a very busy day in the course of this investigation. >> does it surprise you to hear that the engineer says he can't remember a thing even though there is evidence that he applied the brakes? >> well, we've not interviewed the engineer byut i want to point out after this it's not unusual for the mind to blank out at least for the short term. that would not surprise me at all. >> would you agree with mayor nutter that it would be reckless to go around that curve? >> no i'm not going to agree at all. that's a judgmental statement. we're here to find out what happened. we're not casting any judgment calls at this point right now. we want to talk to this person
7:10 am
and find out what his perspective was. >> what could have prevented this crash? >> positive train control is exactly what would have controlled this. it was mandated by congress at the beginning of this year. it was a form of redundancy for human error so it can kick in and the train won't overspeed. >> how many miles has it not been installed yet? >> we're gathering that information now. we want to find out what percentage does have it. that's important. of course, this part of the track, as you know did not have the positive train control installed on it, so we wasn't to find out why. >> we understand there was a forward facing camera installed on the train. were you able to look at it? >> it gives us one more
7:11 am
perspective of what might have been going on. it's facing out, so we can tell perhaps the track conditions, it can tell us some of the signal indications. you know, it's just one more piece of the puzzle that we hope to use to be able to pull this thing together. >> robert sumwalt, thanks for taking time out of your investigation to talk with us. republicans on the house appropriations committee rejected pleas from democrats to give amtrak more money in next year's budge ees's budget. instead they committed cuts. it's kept them from fully using technology that might have prevented thedy aster. we're going to take you inside a simulator to see how this positive train control works. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." the search continues for the missing helicopter in nepal. it was delivering aid in the

his brother was president when the war was going on. when asked the question knowing everything you know now wowuld you have said yes. he said yes. they said he's got to immediately left it up. and then he left it there sort of dribbling out onto the page. the question is not what he would have done but what he learned. we don't know that. >> talked to marco rubio yesterday. based on the fact that we found there were no weapons there. would you have been in favor of a weapon. he said no and also that his brother as well. >> this is an interesting question. his brother said it's the right decision. knowing everything we know now it was the right decision. dick cheney said the same. what jeb bush didn't want to do is look like he didn't
7:16 am
understand mistakes had been made. but part of the political question is they all knew how to answer the question quickly and that makes them look more certain about the world than jeb bush. >> do you think it will be a topic? >> 18% think it was worth it. the rest think it was a mistake and not worth the incredible cost. republicans talk a lot about ronald reagan. some say wi don't want to talk about iraq because it's in the pass but does it show he's rusty in answering questions? >> he's rusty and it shes he doesn't know about american history and also he didn't want to throw his brother under the

7:33 am
moving on. "the philadelphia inquirer" looks at new technology that can force a train to slow down. the ntsb says it could have prevented tuesday night's deadly amtrak crash. it was going over 100 miles an hour at a sharp curve. beg gnaw is in los angeles to show us how things might have been different. >> charlie good morning. tens of thousands use it every day. positive train control or ptc is up and running. it allows the computer to take over the controls of the train that could lead to a potential danger. authorities authorities authorities cite excessive speed but if it was the engineer's mistake, that error could have been corrected by computer technology. >> with a functioning positive train control system as the train approached that curve, the technology would have actually
7:34 am
slowed the train down or brought it to a stop in advance of it potentially speeding through the accident area. >> positive train control or ptc as it's known uses gps technology and ground sensors to determine whether to override the actions of a train engineer. r.t. mccarthy is director of operations for metrolink in southern california. he uses this simulate never los angeles to train his engineers how to utilize ptc. >> now it's telling me i have to brake in 26 scoreds. i'm not going to. it's telling me in six seconds if i don't do anything, ptc will take control. my speed is 62 miles per hour. now you hear the brakes come on. so no matter what i do -- >> so ptc is stopping the train. >> correct. >> and you can't stop it. >> it's done. whatever i can do, the system is
7:35 am
now in command. >> reporter: implementing ptc nationwide was a congressional mandate in 2008 political action after a metro train collided head on with another train in los angeles. 25 people died. the driver of that metrolink train was text messaging. had ptc existed then would that accident have happened? >> no it would not. it would have prevented it from happening. >> if a train operator makes a mistake, has a heart attack or potentially wants to win, ptc will kick in. >> yes. >> do you think it's worth it? >> we think it's worth every penny. >> i'm running the train with the system overlay watching my every movie. >> like a boss over your shoulder. >> correct. >> ptc doesn't just guard against human error. it helps with an earthquake.
7:36 am
>> bottom line, is ptc a live livesaver? >> absolutely. we thiv it's the most important in years to come. >> in the four years metro link has been using ptc in southern california it's only activated once when a signal went red unexpected unexpectedly. it's estimated it could cost $10 billion to implement ptc wide and, gayle, that's one reason why congress is considering delaying the mandate until 2020. >> this was in 2008. >> yes. it seems whatever the cost it's worth it. david begnaud, thank you very much. new research finds that a simple vitamin can slash the risks of certain forms of cancer from coming back. our dr. david agus is in tampa,
7:37 am
florida, today. we were talking about you in the makeup room that dr. david agus is recommending a vitamin. that muld be very special. what are you talking about? >> it's pretty amazing. in australia, 60% of the population get skin cancers. nonmelanoma kind. so they took people with cancers, half got vitamin b3 which is a derivative of niacin and half got placebo and after a year, there was a 23ch reduction in the number of skin cancers. so that's a dramatic number when you say that over 3 1/2 mel yn. >> could it also prevent melanoma melanoma? >> no. melanoma is a different molecular cause. it's a listle different how it works. these three turn back on the
7:38 am
system which seems to be regulated by sunlight. melanoma is a little different in that regard so these are the nonmelanoma skin cancers and they should only be taken by people who had previous ones. it's never been tested in people with no skin cancers. >> no downside i assume. >> no. this was very well tolerated. it's a derivative. really no side effects and pretty dramatic benefit in this regard. >> can i show you photos of a young woman that's been posted on facebook. these are the dangers of tanning beds. it looks painful. is this the same type of cancer that we're talking about? >> this is it. so she was in a tanning bed many times as a young kid and this is what you see. you have to burn them off. sometimes with topical chemotherapy or some other irritant and obviously it's painful, costs a lot, and is tremendously difficult for this family. >> she's 21 years old and

if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle-related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. you may be able to get up to 12 months at no cost. now at chili's new top shelf ranchero chicken tacos. stop in for lunch and tap, swipe, and go. chili's. fresh is happening now. jump into kohls super saturday for over 100 early birds starting at 8am! girls shorts 8.99 and boys shirts 8.99
