Train Derailment Tragedy!

About those job-killing regulations? Train derailment in Washington.

In Washington state, an Amtrak train derailed off the tracks over a freeway overpass. The state agencies said there are fatal casualties.

The Cascade 501 derailed in Pierce County, Washington. The train was on his inaugural first run. It was a high-speed train. The incident happened between Tacoma and Olympia.

This shuts down Interstate 5, a major north-south freeway that travels from Mexico to Canada. 300,000 people travel that portion of highway between Olympia and Seattle.

The NTSB said that investigators will determine whether this was operator error, possible terrorism, or debris on the tracks.

The Cascade 501 went over the overpass and landed on Interstate 5 during rush hour.

"I was traveling to work this morning along I-5 and we came to a sudden stop," Greg Mukai told CNN. "We all tried to stop quickly to avoid running into each other to be honest. Once we all came to a stop I was able to look up and see, unfortunately, this scary thing of ... a train hanging off of the overpass. Lots of military personnel and people ran to try to help the best they could."

Donald J. Trump, Gov. Jay Inslee, Democratic senators Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray were notified.

This comes fresh after Trump vowed to cut these job killing regulations.

I guess regulations matter when it comes to train safety and highways.

Infrastructure is more important than these tax cuts, moments of silence and thoughts and prayers.

Why be silent to such incompetence?
