CSX Corp train derailment kills two in Maryland

(Reuters) - A CSX Corp. freight train carrying coal derailed west of Baltimore and killed two people, police said on Tuesday.

Police received a call around midnight that an eastbound CSX train had come off the tracks in downtown Ellicott City, about 12 miles west of downtown Baltimore, Howard County Police said in a statement.

Rescue workers discovered two bodies in the wreckage, police said. Their identities are unknown.

Twenty-one of the train's 80 cars had left the tracks, police said.

Police said CSX is investigating the accident, but the cause is not known at this time.

A CSX spokesman was not immediately available to comment.
