SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) - March 9, 2009
Lackawanna County Emergency Management Agency director Bob
Flanagan says about five cars from a Canadian Pacific Railway
freight train went off the rails around noon on Monday. No one was
hurt.
Flanagan says the cars appeared to be carrying only lumber and
some SUVs and there is no public danger.
He says a crane will probably be needed to right the cars and
traffic on the line could be tied up for about a day.
