NTSB Investigating Train Crash; Escalator OK at WF; Villanova Goes For Title

Officials have confirmed a heavy equipment operator and supervisor were killed when a southbound Amtrak train struck a backhoe on the tracks Sunday morning in Chester. The engine derailed injuring the train operator and some of the passengers. The NTSB is reviewing data in the black box and video from the train to determine the cause of the crash.

The Wells Fargo Center says everything is back to normal after an escalator malfunctioned on Saturday. Fans were leaving the Flyers game when the escalator suddenly sped up, dumping bodies at the bottom. People were not able to get off fast enough, and piled on top of each other. There were no reports of serious injuries.

After its dominating run through opponents in the NCAA basketball tournament, Villanova is at the threshold of a national championship. It happened 31 years ago when Cinderella Villanova knocked off Georgetown. Villanova’s campus erupted then and if they beat North Carolina tonight, the celebration will certainly spill into the streets across the Main Line. Radnor Police say they are ready if things get out of hand. Tip-off is 9:19 tonight.
