Three people are dead and more than 50 are injured after an Amtrak train carrying 147 passengers and 13 crew derailed in Montana on Saturday afternoon

Crews appear to be using ladders to get on top of the cars in what appears to be an rescue effort. Ambulances and emergency vehicles are on the scene

Passengers crawled down ladders to safety as rescue teams assisted

Amtrak's Empire Builder 7/27 train has reported derailed near Joplin, Montana. Leaving several passengers trapped

Passengers are reporting on Twitter that some are injured, although the severity is not known at this time. Passengers are waiting on buses to pick them up


Passengers said that the derailed cars on the track near Joplin, Montana, have left some passengers trapped inside

One passenger said she heard a boom and felt the carriage 'pitching violently side-to-side'

At least three cars are derailed and two have separated from the train

The last train car was completely on its side from the derailment

One car flipped over. Some of the cars slid down a 30 foot embankment

Go to American forums, no one is saying "biden is a failure", "biden is a disaster" over this. Most blame Amtrak and few blame the governor.

If it happened in Nigeria, we would have seen people taking pictures and blaming the government and Buhari for this situation.

RIP to those who lost their lives, may God heal the injured speedily.

I hope we all realize that accidents do happen, could be anywhere.

Kudos to the first responders.

God bless America.
you are very correct

Tragedy happens everywhere in the world. But if this was Nigeria, Buhari and FG will take 95% of the blame. God protect us.

You are quick to absorb government's blame but failed to compare their immediate response to what we obtain here.

And how many times does such accident happen in USA compared to Nigeria. There's a difference between a mistake and stupidity. Nigeria's situation is stupidity, period!!
And it will still like that for long time because of the kind being you quoted.

That's Nigerians for you.

Most of them are grossly pained over nothing. Hateful and mischievous!

Always driven by pettiness and emotions.

Someone even once said on this platform, while denigrating the train coaches acquired by the FG, that coaches like the ones Buhari bought couldn't be found anywhere in the US.

Accidents, like you pointed out, happen all over the world.

Stupid digression. Hundreds of accidents and deaths happening on our roads, emergency landings by planes......who blames Buhari?

Only stupid person blames PMB. Even the Abuja-Kaduna train have broken down in the bush leaving passengers stranded.

Don't think he hasn't failed in terms of railway.

Ever factored in the efforts put in to prevent occurrences? When you do you best and what you are supposed to do, you don't get the stick. But when you ignorantly ignore the basic stuff....you know what's up.

Don't be surprised the giant America is still using Locomotives, I saw a Chinese bullet train of 220mph on Facebook if you see how Americans are abusing the kind of trains in their country.
The truth is China is getting technologically advanced than US and UK.

Stankovic22:
Look at the kind of train US is using... Shambolic

Their rival China cannot use this type. Even naija Don upgrade

Bro locomotive is still being used in China and Japan and Europe as well

The truth is that China and Japan have more electromagnetic train than other countries

The latest of train is mag Lev train (it's very expensive to built and very dangerous ) only Japan and China have mag Lev train ...try google magnetic levitation train and see

Amtrack have locomotive and electromagnetic train which is the mostly used in d world for now

Remember America is very big compared to Japan ok but China de try that does not mean USA train network is worst ....

Magnet levitation train is the latest innovation

But the good news is Trump approved the construction of mag Lev train in USA and they r now building it like dis will soon complete ..and it will link major cities

But Europe don't want mag lev train because it's too dangerous and expensive to build for now ...Germany rejected it ..UK also .. Netherlands did not accept ..

So make una relax ...USA using locomotive train does not.mean electro magnetic train scarce ...some Americans like vintage lifestyle ..sometimes google up things before you comment
