Multiple Train Derailments Reported in Wisconsin, Including One in Mississippi River

A train carrying "freight of all kinds" derailed in southwest Wisconsin, with several train cars in the Mississippi River and along its bluff. One person received medical attention, and the cause of the derailment is under investigation. The area has been inundated with floodwaters, and the Black Hawk Bridge over the river from Iowa is closed. Experts are concerned about the environmental impact of the derailment, and the railroad company, BNSF Railway, is one of the largest in the country.
