TRENTON, S.C. (WRDW) -- Emergency Management Director of Edgefield County
said 36 cars are off the track where a train derailed Friday night.
.
According to Suzy Spurgeon, Edgefield County director of Emergency
Management, two locomotives are back on the rails, they never overturned,
they just jumped the track. There are about 36 cars where six cars should
be. Spurgeon calls that the 'crumpled' effect.
.
Clean-up could take a few days. All tanker cars are secure and there are
no leaks detected. However, an emergency plan is in place if they do start
to leak, Spurgeon said.
.
Four homes on Salters Pond Road are still evacuated while crews
investigate, Spurgeon said.

TRENTON, S.C. (WRDW) -- Norfolk Southern officials have said 31 cars
derailed when a train struck a tree across the railroad tracks Friday
night.
.
The train hit a tree at 8:45 p.m. Friday. It got lodged in the lead
locomotives wheels and caused the train to jump the tracks, Rick Harris

.
Originally, South Carolina Emergency Management reported 39 cars derailed
but Norfolk Southern confirms it was 31 cars.
.
The train had two locomotives, 52 loaded cars, and 30 empty cars. It
weighed 7,722 tons and was 5,405 feet long, Norfolk Southern officials
said.
.
The train was traveling from Savannah to Linwood, North Carolina. Some of
the derailed cars were carrying ammonium nitrate, which is used as a
fertilizer. Other cars were carrying anhydrous ammonia, which can be
dangerous, according to Rick Harris with Norfolk Southern.
.
Between 25 and 30 homes within a one-and-a-half mile radius of the
derailment were evacuated and residents were sent to Mt. Canaan Baptist
