Three Trains Derail In Eastern Pennsylvania

BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) — Authorities say three trains were involved in a derailment in eastern Pennsylvania that left some railroad cars along a riverbank and at least one partially in the river, but caused no reported injuries or hazardous materials concerns. Dispatchers in Northampton County say the derailment was reported at about 7:15 a.m. Saturday in Lower Saucon Township. The National Transportation Safety Board says preliminary information indicates an eastbound Norfolk Southern train struck a stopped train on the same track, derailing some cars, and wreckage from the striking train spilled onto an adjacent track and was struck by a westbound Norfolk Southern train.
