Last evening while going through Philadelphia, an Amtrak train traveling about 106 mph attempted to take a curve with a speed limit of 50 mph.
Count Cher among those who believe more funding would have prevented the fatal crash:

Can you explain how these meager funds would have stopped the engineer from going too fast? https://t.co/aVQUoypZxE
