Rescue underway for 183 Amtrak passengers stranded in Oregon

An Amtrak train with 183 passengers on board has been stalled in the snow in Oregon since last night after hitting a tree that fell on the tracks.

Heavy snow and falling trees had prevented rail crews from reaching the train until now, but they have reportedly now arrived on site. No one was hurt after the accident and passengers still have food and water.

While the train itself still has power and essentials, passengers have said other items – like diapers and female sanitary products are running out and stress levels are rising.
