 DUPONT, Wash. -- An Amtrak train derailed on an overpass in Washington state Monday morning, with some of the 14 train cars careening onto vehicles on a highway below. The crash resulted in at least three confirmed fatalities and numerous injuries, and authorities are still combing through the wreckage to find victims.
