9 CP train cars carrying coal derail in Burnaby, B.C.

Its taken me 3 days to figure out the severeity of the

derailment and "add coal spilling into a waterway" as

the next big thing to worry the population. Well

"coal juice" isnt something you want in a creek/river/

lake for sure. This is appears to be a CN/CP accident

well north of the Roberts Bank Facilities the BNSF

unloads at daily. Still its one more weird "just

had to happen" thing in railroading. We are seeing

them very frequently now. The public seems to be on

the "railroads back" more than ever before. I was

also noticing the train was a 152 cars long. Thats

a huge train by any standard. I got video of CP

coal trains through the Fraser River Canyon at

that length.
