Saskatoon Saskatchewan - The Transportation Safety Board (TSB) is investigating another case of a runaway railway car rolling through a
Saskatchewan city.
The board says on 27 Mar 2016 an empty Canadian Pacific Railway hopper car rolled through a rail yard in Saskatoon and across two public level crossings in the
city before coming to a stop.
The safety board is already investigating a runaway railcar full of asphalt that rolled about four kilometres through Regina on 1 Mar 2016 from the Co-op
refinery complex.
That railcar, which was being handled by staff from Cando Rail, crossed a number of streets before coming to rest near a Regina neighbourhood.
No one was hurt in either case.
Cando Rail has said an air brake on the Regina car was set, but suddenly released.
