No Environmental Damage from Train Derailment

No word on why a train carrying potash derailed along Crown Street near Coast Tire. Crews on the scene for Southern New Brunswick Railway are referring all inquiries to J-D Irving. 

City Police are calling it a major derailment, although the fire department wasn't called, with 4 potash cars lying on their sides and 8 more are off the tracks but no one was hurt, there was no spillage and traffic along Crown is not blocked.

CHSJ News phoned the Transportation Safety Board but was told it was the first they had heard about it and requested information from us.
