TL;DR Summary

Two BNSF trains derailed in Arizona and Washington state, with the latter spilling diesel fuel on tribal land along Puget Sound. No injuries were reported. The derailment in Arizona involved a train carrying corn syrup, while the one in Washington occurred on a berm along Padilla Bay, on the Swinomish tribal reservation near Anacortes. Most of the spilled diesel fuel leaked on the land side of the berm rather than toward the water, and there were no indications the spill reached the water or affected any wildlife.
