The Metro-North mechanical department performed a proper brake test prior to the train leaving the station and there were no anomalies, officials said.
A Metro-North commuter train derailed in the Bronx on Sunday, killing four people and injuring at least 60.
The train's operator reportedly told investigators that he was "in a daze" before the train crashed, according to CNN.
The train was reportedly traveling at 82 miles per hour in a 30-mile-per-hour zone when it derailed.
