Multiple Amtrak Train Derailments Cause Service Disruptions at Union Station
An Amtrak train derailed near Union Station in D.C., causing delays and disruptions for Virginia Railway Express (VRE) and Amtrak services. The train remained upright, and no passengers or crew members were injured. VRE service will be impacted until early Wednesday morning, with trains terminating at L'Enfant Station instead of Union Station. Amtrak service between D.C. and Richmond is temporarily suspended as crews clear the derailed train and inspect tracks. The cause of the derailment is still unknown.
