I noticed yesterday that trains were back to traveling at their usual speed. Does that mean the cause of the derailment has been determined? I haven't seen anything about it in the media.

i saw this right after it happened, and listed to the news, the news reports were up to date and the clean up, and listen to the news...the hazmat team was out there and reported that the chemical spilled was not enough to pose any danger to threaten the people around it....so thank you and bye bye
