The Transportation Safety Board is investigating a derailment in British Columbia involving a Canadian Pacific Kansas City train.
It’s the second time this month a CPKC train has been involved in a derailment in B.C.
The Transportation Safety Board says a team of investigators is being deployed after the train derailed on Tuesday near Jaffray, B.C., about 347 kilometres southwest of Calgary.
No further information has been released, and CPKC did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
The derailment comes a week after an incident near Elko, B.C., about 20 kilometres east of Jaffray, where CPKC says 12 empty train cars left the tracks.
