A train carrying 269 passengers and 30 crew members has been stopped and quarantined in Foleyet, Canada after 10 people fell ill with flu like symptoms. One of the passengers that became ill has died and another was taken to a hospital.

Officials are saying that it appears the illness is contained in two cars but are not letting any of the passengers off the train and have evacuated the station at Foleyet as a precaution.

The cause of the symptoms as of this writing are unknown and we will try to provide an update as soon as possible.
