Minor injuries reported, I would assume not a super high speed crash on this line, but two cars are down an embankment.

The train that derailed is the Vermonter that replaced the Montrealer in 1995.AARR wrote:Is this the Amtrak train that was recently moved from the NECR line?

I'm not familiar with the Montrealer. Although it sounds like the Amtrak train that used the NECR line until recently when it switched to a PamAm line, IIRC.
