Train Derails In New York Killing 4 And Scores Injured.





A train derailed on Sunday in New York killing 4 and injuring 63 people. The accident occurred in the early hours  of Sunday, 1st December. 
Firefighters and emergency rescue workers  swarmed the scene near Spuyten Duyvil station in the Bronx, where at least two train cars turned on their sides as they skidded off the tracks. 
Three of the dead were thrown out of the train as it "came off the track and was twisting and turning," according to reports. 
Police divers were in the water hours after the crash looking for survivors, and cadaver dogs searched the wreckage. 
Authorities believe all the passengers have been accounted for. About 150 people were on the train when it derailed. 


It was unclear how fast the train was travelling.
