Friday Morning Derailment Snarls Traffic Along Division and Avenue A in Hope

An early morning train derailment along Division and Avenue A caused traffic delays and detours Friday morning.  Crews were still working late Friday afternoon to clean up the accident.  Work had to be done on the main Union Pacific line as well as the tracks that veer off across Avenue A to the north.  Crews worked to clear the crossings as soon as they could but Avenue A was still blocked Friday afternoon.
