A collision occurred on the railway line when a truck fell onto the tracks, causing several compartments of the passenger train to derail. Many passengers were injured in this incident. The incident took place in California, USA.


According to BBC reports, the Amtrak-operated train had 200 passengers on board. The injured were rescued and admitted to the hospital. Amtrak stated that multiple fatalities could have occurred in this incident. Several compartments of the train derailed, but the remaining passengers were safely evacuated.


According to BBC reports, the train was traveling from Los Angeles to Seattle. Approximately 80 kilometers away from Los Angeles, near Moorpark, a truck unexpectedly fell onto the railway line. The train, traveling at high speed, collided with the truck and derailed.


Andy Vance, an official spokesperson for the Ventura County Fire Department, said, "The train has survived a major disaster. The compartments did indeed derail, but they did not overturn. They remained in a straight position. If the compartments had flipped, many passengers could have been killed." According to Amtrak officials, alternative arrangements have been made to transport the passengers to their destinations after the incident. Mindy Faber, who returned on the same train with her mother, Sharon Peterson, from Oregon, told a news outlet, "I felt a sudden jolt. Then the train stopped. Inside the compartment, the passengers started panicking and screaming. When I looked out the window, I saw that our compartment had come off the tracks."
