No. All it means is that they have collected perishable evidence from the wreck site. They will now go over the cars and adjacent infrastructure with a fine tooth comb to see what else it is that they may see. They will now examine those cars in detail and reconstruct all of the forces involved in the accident, and the sequence of events.

They have so far as I know, not ruled anything out yet. But an examination of the ground, its moisture, its stability especially with the adjacent tracks and ballast removed as it was.

LOOK under every leaf, every scrap of metal, examine how it was deformed and by what. There is a LOOONNNNG way to go on this investigation, and much of it is done in doors at the drafting table, with paper, pencil and computer.

And, Yes, the NTSB knows how vital this rail link is to the area and how important it is to have trains running again as soon as possible.

But you do need to remove the cars before you can continue to inspect the track and roadbed structure.

So go ROAR on that.
