A freight train rear-ended another carrying hazardous materials in northern Arizona, and three locomotives burst into flames, authorities said. One engineer was missing and at least three people were injured. It didn’t appear that any of the hazardous material the front train was carrying had spilled, said a spokeswoman for Burlington Northern Santa Fe, which operates the tracks. Officials said the cause of the crash wasn’t immediately known.
