Train ride to hell? CPKC’s rail cars catch fire, blazing trail to London, Ont.

80

A CPKC train with five railcars went up in flames as it was travelling in London, Ont., on Sunday night.

No injuries were reported and fire officials said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that the railcars were carrying old railway materials made of wood and so there were no dangerous goods involved.

Shortly after 1 a.m. ET, fire crews began clearing the scene and CP crews moved the train cars to the railway yard. Damage is pegged at $25,000 for the rail cars and $10,000 to the Drewlo Holding building in London.

The fire department said the railway company was investigating the cause of the fire.
