Derailed

Cars from an Amtrak train lay spilled onto Interstate 5 below alongside smashed vehicles as some train cars remain on the tracks above Monday, Dec. 18, 2017, in
DuPont, Wash. The Amtrak train making the first-ever run along a faster new route hurtled off the overpass Monday near Tacoma and spilled some of its cars onto the
highway below, killing at least 6 people, authorities said at press time. Seventy-eight passengers and five crew members were aboard when the train moving at more
than 80 mph derailed about 40 miles south of Seattle before 8 a.m., Amtrak said.
