Feds: Engineer's sleepiness caused derailment

In this Dec. 1, 2013 file photo, a Metro-North passenger train is derailed on a curved section of track in the Bronx borough of New York. The National Transportation Safety Board said Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2014 that the sleep-deprived engineer nodded off at the controls of the commuter train just before taking a 30 mph curve at 82 mph, causing the derailment that killed four people and injured more than 70.
