A massive train derailment in Northbrook, Illinois turns tragic when crews find a car buried underneath the rubble.

A union pacific train with 28 cars carrying up to 85 tons of coal each derailed just before two Wednesday afternoon on July 4.

The derailment caused the collapse of a nearby bridge. The car wasn't found until Thursday.

 One decapitated male victim and another unidentified body were trapped inside, but crews say the tally of victims could still climb.

Neither victim has been identified yet.

The collapsed bridge had just been rebuilt after a similar train derailment in the area destroyed it in 2009.
