The following report is by Fox News:
A train has reportedly derailed in the state of Maine and officials say they believe hazardous materials were on board.
“Train derailment with fire north of Rockwood, hazard materials please stay clear!” The Rockwood, Maine Fire & Rescue posted on Facebook Saturday.
The Fire & Rescue team posted a photo of the incident that shows a derailed train and a fire burning in a snow covered forest area.
Rockwood Fire & Rescue did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
It is unclear if anyone was injured during the derailment.
Rockwood, Maine, is located on the western side of Moosehead Lake in the northern part of the state roughly 45 miles from the Canadian border.
The railroad tracks in that area of Maine are owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway, Fox 23 Maine reported.
A spokesperson for Canadian Pacific Kansas City Limited told CBS News that none of the hazardous materials caught fire.
A total of three locomotive engines and six rail cars carrying lumber and electrical wiring derailed into a wooded area, where they caught fire and started a small forest fire. The fires are contained and are being monitored.
The Maine Forest Service posted on Facebook.
The statement added,
Additional rail cars transporting hazardous materials did not derail. The assessment of officials on the scene is that these hazardous materials are not at risk of leaking and are not at risk of catching fire.
The Maine Forest Service explained that it does not believe the public is at risk at this time and the derailment may have been caused by “a build-up of melting ice and debris that washed out part of the railroad track.”
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
And the LORD said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Jeremiah 11:9
Add this to the list of ridiculous amounts of trains derailing, especially those that are carrying toxic chemicals. The government wants us to believe that these things are quite common, but we know otherwise.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
