No injuries resulted when a CSX coal train derailed after striking a rockslide in the Harlan County community Wallins Creek, Ky. Two locomotives and eight cars derailed. WYMT-TV quotes CSX spokeswoman Cindy Schild as saying the derailment occurred about 2:09 a.m., and no leaks or spills into waterways occurred. A state transportation department spokesman said the adjacent State Route 2007 is expected to be closed for nearly a month as the rockslide is cleared. No word if anyone was in the house that was narrowly missed by the derailment.
