Another CN train derails in B.C.
Prince George, B.C. — A CN Rail train derailed in northern British Columbia on Thursday, the latest in a string of accidents in Western Canada this year.

Railway spokesman Graham Dallas said 15 cars of the northbound train left the tracks at about 4 a.m., about 22 kilometres east of Fort St. James.

Last week, there were two CN derailments in B.C. in a single day, including one in the Squamish area, where there have been several derailments this year.

On Wednesday, Transport Canada relaxed its order to CN regarding the length of its trains on that route north of Vancouver for a 60-day trial period.

Ok Folks. Move on. Nothing to see here. Keep moving. Everything is being done that can possibly be expected.
