President Trump said that the Amtrak train that derailed over I-5 just south of Dupont Washington “shows more than ever why our soon to be submitted infrastructure plan must be approved quickly.” Police have reported at least three dead, while 77 people have been transported to area hospitals. Amtrak said about 78 passengers and five crew members were on board at the time of the incident, which remains under investigation.
