Safety board investigates after second train derailment in B.C. within a week

CALGARY — 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 said Tuesday that it was deploying a team after a train derailed overnight near Jaffray, B.C., about 350 kilometres southwest of Calgary.

A CPKC spokesperson says there were no injuries, leaks of any products or risk to public safety after 16 cars derailed, though one was carrying dangerous goods.
