<p>A 19 y/o UD nursing student (along with friend attending another college-I believe JMU) were killed by a train while they were sitting on a train bridge in Maryland. The CSX train derailed and numerous coal cars were turned over. It is not clear if the train derailed because of trying to stop due to the students being on the bridge. This a major tragedy for the families of these students as well as for their respective college communities.</p>
