CSX still cleaning up derailment in Canton

CSX is still doing work on the rail line in the village of Canton after 8 box cars derailed last night around 6.  Park Street, the main road between the village downtown and St. Lawrence University, is closed as rail workers continue their repairs.

According to CSX spokesman Bob Sullivan, there was no spill and no injuries.  None of the 75 cars on the train were carrying hazardous materials.  The train was going from Massena to Selkirk, near Albany.

Sullivan says he expects service to be restored by tomorrow morning.
