    Sad.
    Was the cause identified? The report said it was on IC/CN trackage.

    Very sad. :(

    Also, we can note the usual incorrect reporting. The story starts out saying that the Amtrak "train jumped its tracks." Then twelve paragraphs later, contradicts itself that these were CN/IC tracks. [​IMG]
