Locomotive involved
Forum sources claim that the Amtrak locomotive involved was GE P42DC № 47. Can we confirm this from a reliable source please. Mjroots (talk) 17:45, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Crew
Sources give eight crew on the Amtrak train, but how many were on the CSX train? Mjroots (talk) 19:18, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Apparently there weren't any crew members on the CSX train. Daybeers (talk) 19:35, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * In the Lac Megantic disaster the name of the freight engineer was published early on. So have the names of the CSX engineer, switchman and dispatcher been revealed yet? Is there any mention in RS of when the CSX train was put on the siding? Someone had to have left the switch aligned and padlocked so as to cause the crash, either CSX workers or vandals. I've seen no reference to drug/alcohol testing of aforementioned CSX workers or their work/sleep schedules prior to the possible switching error. Edison (talk) 02:14, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Less than 48 hours have passed since the collision, and the NTSB hasn't published its preliminary report yet. I'm not sure if we will know the names of the crew for a while, as they haven't released the names of the crew members who were in the cab in the December Cascades derailment. In my opinion I think this is a good move, as after the 2015 Philadelphia crash, the media dissected everything about engineer Brandon Bostian's life. I think it is more appropriate to be further along in the investigation before releasing that information. Daybeers (talk) 04:04, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
