ABC News is reporting:
Authorities are evacuating homes after a dozen train cars derailed near Valley Mills, including five tanker cars carrying methanol.
Department of Public Safety spokesman Trooper D.L. Wilson says no injuries or fires have been reported from the Saturday evening accident. He says one or two of the methanol-hauling tanks have small leaks.
As Rush would say, there's nothing to see here folks, move on.
