A Norfolk Southern train derailed Saturday in eastern Pennsylvania, resulting in a spill of diesel fuel and polypropylene plastic pellets.
The train had multiple cars derail near the Lehigh River, where much of the spill occurred. The Lower Saucon Township Police Department reported no injuries, evacuations, or hazardous material threats. Authorities were able to use a containment boom, an absorbent material, to begin to clean up the river.
