FILE- This Jan. 6, 2014, file photo, shows a commuter train after it hit a "bumping post" at the end of the LaSalle Street station platform in Chicago. A similar system was in place on Sept. 29, 2016 when a New Jersey Transit Commuter train slammed into it, killing one person and injuring more than 100. Federal investigators are examining how the bumping post in Hoboken performed compared to one in the similar accident at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport in 2014, according to two people who were present at a briefing by investigators last month but weren’t authorized to speak about it publicly.
