Federal authorities say a preliminary investigation has found that a broken rail caused a train derailment that collapsed a bridge over a Colorado highway

Workers toil to clear cars that derailed in an accident over Interstate 25 northbound, Monday, Oct. 16, 2023, north of Pueblo, Colo. A broken rail caused a train derailment that collapsed a bridge over a Colorado highway, killing a truck driver and blocking the road for days, federal authorities said Tuesday, based on their preliminary investigation.

There is no reason believe the derailment was sabotage, said Sarah Taylor Sulick, of the National Transportation Safety Board, which released the preliminary findings Tuesday. A nine-mile stretch of I-25 — used by 39,000 to 44,000 vehicles daily — was shut down. Traffic was being detoured around the derailment site and through the town of Penrose, almost 30 miles west of Pueblo.Railroad companies typically own the bridges that trains use. However, BNSF said the steel girder bridge that collapsed onto I-25 was owned by the state.
