I read the report a while back and I enjoyed it. You usually learn a lot of operating details in the NTSB reports, things that they cover that are not specifically related to the event they are investigating.
One thing I read in this report which I thought was pretty cool. PATH crews call the trip from Journal Square-Hoboken-33rd Street "around-the-world." As example they will say that on their next trip "we're going around the world." Having made that trip as a passenger many times (TOO many times!) I agree. Great description.
There were several other things like that I found in the report. I read it when it when it first came out so I don't recall what they were off hand. Very interesting report and well-worth taking the time to read it.
The NTSB did however make a finding that the probable cause was the failure of the engineer to control train speed as she entered Hoboken station.
