CSX locomotives overturn at Benning Yard
WASHINGTON -- The Washington D.C. fire department is working to contain a fuel and chemical spill from two overturned locomotives, the Associated Press reported.

Fire department spokesman Billy Hayes says two CSX Corp. locomotives overturned about 11 a.m. Tuesday in a rail yard at Benning Road in northeast Washington.

He says hazmat crews are trying to contain less than 100 gallons of fuel and lubricant that spilled from the locomotives.

CSX will lead the cleanup effort after the chemicals are fully contained.

Officials say the spill is not affecting area waterways and no injuries have been reported.
