Train carrying oil derails, catches fire in Canada - Times Union

Officials in Canada said a derailed freight train carrying crude oil and propane continued to burn Wednesday morning, while they prepared to launch aerial surveillance and more than 100 residents remained evacuated from their homes. There were no deaths or injuries.
"The biggest concern is the propane cars," the fire chief of the nearby community of Plaster Rock, Tim Corbin, said Wednesday morning, according to CBC News. "That's our biggest concern because if they happen to explode, we're looking at major damage."
