The Baltimore Sun, 3/4/18:
 

CSX train derailed, four cars fell into Susquehanna River amid wind storm

 

 

A CSX train derailed on a bridge over the Susquehanna River on Friday night, causing four empty rail cars to fall into the water below.

 

The freight train headed to Richmond, Va., derailed between Cecil and Harford counties at about 8 p.m. Friday, CSX officials said in a statement. No injuries were reported, no hazardous materials were involved and there appears to be no environmental impact, officials said.

 

Officials said the cause of the derailment remains under investigation, and could not say whether Friday’s strong winds caused the empty rail cars to come off the tracks.
