Milton, Fla. (AP) - Authorities say a freight train carrying
petroleum, wine and fruit has derailed in the Florida Panhandle
amid heavy fog.
A spokeswoman for Santa Rosa County says about 150 to 200
gallons of petroleum leaked from one tanker. But county spokeswoman
Joy Tsubooka says no injuries were reported and no evacuations are
planned.
She says some 13 cars jumped the track. A tanker carrying carbon
dioxide did not pose a threat. Another car was carrying fruit and
wine.
Tsubooka says the CSX train derailed about 6:20 a.m. Saturday.
