Damaged rail cars were carrying “molten sulfur and asphalt,” according to a statement from Montana Rail Link.
Two cars carrying sodium hydrogen sulfate were part of the derailment but neither landed in the river “and initial air quality assessments have been performed and confirmed that there is no release event associated with those two cars,” the railroad said.
The derailment occurred around 6 a.m. Multiple tanker cars were damaged and are leaking “petroleum products,” according to Yellowstone County Disaster and Emergency Services.
The derailed Montana Rail Link train cars included “several hazmat cars,” the regional rail company said in an earlier statement. The train crew is safe and no injuries have been reported, the statement said.
Yellowstone County officials said there was no immediate threat and “precautions are being put in place.”
