PHILADELPHIA — The death toll in the derailment of an Amtrak train in Port Richmond rose to six Wednesday as federal investigators readied to go to Philadelphia in a bid to determine what caused the wreck that also injured dozens of people. Eight survivors remain in critical condition. Sources said the train engineer and conductor survived the crash and were being interviewed.
A source familiar with operations at the scene at the same time said rescue crews feared they might find more casualties under a train car that is on its side and is to be lifted by a crane. A team from the Medical Examiner’s office was waiting at the site.
