Amtrak train derails in Vermont with unknown injuries
An Amtrak passenger train has derailed in Northfield, Vermont, authorities have confirmed.
Multiple agencies are responding to the incident, said Vermont state police spokesman Scott Waterman. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-34447241 Amtrak has said there are no "immediate reports of any life-threatening injuries". In a news release it said the train, travelling south to Washington, derailed after striking a rock slide on the tracks. Four people were taken away from the scene by ambulance. Other passengers were taken by school bus to nearby Norwich University. A deadly Amtrak passenger train derailment in Philadelphia this year killed seven people.
