Freight train derails in Delta, B.C.

The train cars, carrying “freight of all kinds,” got off the tracks around 2:30 a.m. near Highway 91 in Delta, according to BNSF Railway.

“There are no injuries to the crew, no hazardous material compromised or threat to the public,” a spokesperson told CTV News.

I confess: I immediate thought several things, based on recent trends:
it's a (pathetic profit-driven) public-private partnership - (pp)ppp
it's operating, like translink and BCFerries, in a run-to-fail setup so it doesn't dip into profits with all that 'proper maintenance' crap
this is how we Find Out.
Thanks Gordo!
