Canadian Pacific Trains Involved in Two Derailments
14 March 2022

Drinkwater Saskatchewan and Minneiska Minnesota - CP trains were involved in two derailments on Saturday, one in Saskatchewan, and one in Minnesota.
 
An unknown number of cars were involved in the derailment of a train carrying corn near Drinkwater, Saskatchewan, but at least 20 cars are visible on their sides or otherwise off the track in a video posted to the Twitter feed of a reporter for the Canadian agricultural news site The Western Producer.
 
The CBC reports the derailment occurred about 06:30 and that there were no injuries.
 
An investigation of the cause is under way.
 
Drinkwater is about 25 miles southwest of Regina.
 
The Minnesota incident, near Minneiska, involved 10 to 12 empty rail cars and led to a closure of one lane of U.S. Route 61 near the accident site, the Rochester Post-Bulletin reports.
 
No injuries were reported and no hazardous materials were involved.
 
The highway was expected to be reopened on Sunday.
 
Minneiska, on CP's main line along the Mississippi River, is about 15 miles northwest of Winona, Minnesota.
