Train Derails in Napoleon

A train derailed yes­ter­day morn­ing in Napoleon, tem­porar­ily block­ing the inter­sec­tion of Glen­wood and Wash­ing­ton. The train was car­ry­ing tomato paste, so no HAZMAT sit­u­a­tion here, but two cars did over­turn, caus­ing some dam­age to about 100 feet of track, which will have to be repaired once the cars are removed and before train traf­fic can resume through the area.
