An Amtrak passenger train derailed Monday in Northfield, Vermont, injuring seven people, officials said. There were no fatalities.
Dana Huoppi, a spokeswoman with the Montpelier Fire Department, said at least two cars went off the track and over an embankment.
Ninety-eight people were aboard the train when it derailed, said Hjonis Hanson, a spokesman for Central Vermont Medical Center. The hospital is treating six patients in its emergency department, he said, and none has life-threatening injuries.
One passenger is being treated at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New Hampshire, a spokesman said. The passenger’s condition is unknown, officials said at a Monday afternoon press conference.
