Railroad Crews Setting Cars Back On Track

Last updated on Friday, June 19, 2009

(WORTHINGTON) - The Indiana Southern Railroad has a crew working to set 12 rail cars back on a track south of Worthington.

The empty cars, some of them tankers, were blown over into a ditch that once was a part of the historic Wabash and Erie Canal system.

The incident hasn't caused any interruption of rail traffic.

It happened on a "side track", not the main track that was washed out by last year's flood just south of Thursday morning's derailment.
