(CNN) One of three conductors aboard the Amtrak train that derailed in
Philadelphia this week told investigators she heard the locomotive's
engineer say the train had been struck by an object, National
Transportation Safety Board member Robert Sumwalt said Friday.
.
The assistant conductor said she overheard radio transmissions made
Tuesday by Amtrak engineer Brandon Bostian and the engineer of a
Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) train.
.
"She recalled that the SEPTA engineer had reported to the train dispatcher
that he had either been hit by a rock or shot at, and the SEPTA engineer
said that he had a broken windshield, and he placed his train into
emergency stop," Sumwalt said. "She also believed that she heard (the
Amtrak) engineer say something about his train being struck by something."

While he was "extremely cooperative," he had "no recollection" of anything
that happened once the train passed the North Philadelphia station, about
3 miles from the crash site, Sumwalt said. Bostian suffered a concussion,
among other injuries.
