Train derailment in Montana spills beer and propane, no injuries reported.
A train derailment in Montana has caused a spill of powdered clay and beer, including Coors Light and Blue Moon cans and bottles. No injuries have been reported, but the cleanup crews face a daunting task as some cars are off the tracks in a narrow, century-old tunnel with limited access. A tanker car carrying butane was on its side, but it did not leak. A boom was deployed across the river to secure any cans or bottles of beer that enter the water and to monitor for any possible diesel impacts after a small amount of fuel spilled on the dirt from two refrigerator cars that derailed. The cause of the derailment is still under investigation.
