8:30 a.m.
The wreckage from a train collision continues to smolder as work crews prepare to remove a jumble of charred, twisted box cars strewn along tracks in the Texas Panhandle.
Three BNSF Railway crew members remain missing Wednesday, a day after two BNSF freight trains traveling on the same track collided head-on about 25 miles northeast of Amarillo.
A fourth crew member jumped from one of the trains prior to the collision Tuesday morning and was hospitalized with injuries not considered life-threatening.
