Train Derailment
I just got an update from Charlie Hodges, he handles PR for the city of Cleburne. He says according to information given by the city manager initial indications are track problems are a cause for derailment. The only responsibility the city has in this accident is to make sure the appropriate streets are shutdown. Burlington-Northern Santa Fe is based in Fort Worth. The train was actually traveling from Wyoming to Houston carrying 4500 tons of coal. No injuries and the coal can still be used. According to the city and the railroad company there is no health risk for nearby residents.
