CN freight train derails in central Saskatchewan



RAYMORE, Sask. -- A Canadian National Railway freight train has derailed near a town in central Saskatchewan.

CN (TSX:CNR) says 33 freight cars, including one carrying dangerous goods, left the tracks near Raymore this morning.

CN spokesman Jim Feeny says no one was hurt and the crew reports that the one car caring isopropanol alcohol is not leaking.

Feeny says the derailment has closed CN's main line and rail traffic is being rerouted to other lines.

RCMP say the derailment happened about three kilometres west of the town and there have been no evacuations.

The cause of the derailment is under investigation
