Barons Alberta - Traffic on Highway 23 is being re-routed as a hazmat team from Calgary and emergency crews from southern Alberta deal with a train derailment near the Village of Barons.
 
The CP train was northbound when an engine reportedly derailed "and a few empty fuel cars" tipped over, according to RCMP.
 
No injuries were reported.
 
"The derailed engine, as a result of the angle it is currently resting at, is causing diesel fuel to leak from the fuel entry point," RCMP said in a release.
 
"CP as well as a hazmat team are responding from Calgary."
 
Northbound traffic is being re-routed at Highway 23 and Township Road 114.
 
Southbound traffic is being re-routed at Highway 23 and Township Road 120.
 
The public is asked to avoid the area.
 
Barons is about 170 kilometres southeast of Calgary.
