PITTSBURGH — Trains were running Sunday following a derailment in Pittsburgh that stopped railroad traffic and temporarily closed a section of West Carson Street.
Five cars on a Norfolk Southern Railway line slipped off the tracks in the city’s Esplen neighborhood near the 2800 block of West Carson between Telford Street and a railroad bridge that crosses the Ohio River. Motor traffic was temporarily blocked between the Corliss Tunnel and Stanhope Street in McKees Rocks.
Pittsburgh Public Safety officials said no one was injured. It remained unclear what caused the accident.
