A freight train traveling through flooding in Northern Texas derailed on Saturday morning after its tracks were almost completely washed away. The train, which belongs to Union Pacific Railroad, was carrying 64 cars and two operators, both of whom swam to safety after the incident, according to the Associated Press.

Seen from above, the footage is startling:

The area is in the midst of torrential rainfall, and received a total of 16½ inches of rain Friday alone. One person — a homeless man who was trying to save his dog and was swept into a drainage ditch — is officially missing so far.

More rain, including flash flooding, is expected to hit the region as the remnants of tropical storm Patricia reach northwards.
