A 14-car train carrying liquid propane and other materials derailed in Connecticut on Thursday morning. “Preliminary information indicates that at approximately 9:22 a.m., several rail cars became detached from a train traveling in Mansfield,” Connecticut State Police told the Daily News. At a noon press conference, authorities said four of those train cars were carrying liquid propane and landed in the frigid Willimantic River. Six cars were believed to be filled with liquid gas. Officials said that cranes would be brought in to participate in what’s expected to be a methodical clean-up process. Authorities told locals the train cars showed no signs of leakage, but warned the natural gas onboard has no odor. “There is concern for hazardous material contamination, but that has not yet been confirmed,” city officials wrote in a post assuring residents that emergency responders were on the scene. While no evacuations had been ordered on Thursday morning, authorities have asked residents to stay indoors as rescue workers and hazmat specialists address the area. Roads near Route 32, between Route 275 and Route 44, were closed following the derailment. Nearby schools will continue to operate as planned, officials said, though school officials in Mansfield were working on alternate bus routes for the afternoon. A conductor and engineer were on the train when the crash occurred, but no injuries were reported. The cause of the derailment wasn’t immediately clear. Officials planned to provide more information as the investigation continued. Police are being assisted by the Division of Emergency Management, Homeland Security and the Department of Transportation. Officials with the Mansfield Fire Department and Office of Emergency Management have not responded to a request for comment. ...read more read less
