This is not clear yet. One of the theories is that one of the drives ran a
red light, another theory is that problems with cellular phones caused the
accident (NSB who manage the trains use cell phones for communication) a
third theory is a millenium bug.
This is of course a very tragic accident, however you should wait for the
results from the crash investigation committee before you decide what
caused the accident.
