A train was able to derail itself. On Tuesday, in Seabrook, just a day after a different train derailed in Dacus, Texas, an accident took place. The most recent derailment of a train occurred before 11 in the morning.
At least two vehicles could be seen on their sides in the video captured by Air 11, and one of them appeared to be about to leave the track. In an effort to right the carriages and get the train running again, a number of construction trucks were seen removing soil and positioning lumber alongside the rails.
Precinct 3 reports that there were no spills and that there was no risk to the general public. At the Port Road exit of Highway 146, the northbound feeder road was closed. It did not appear that there was a big impact on traffic.
