New York Newsday reports that a "CSX freight train derailed in central New York early Wednesday, dumping more than a dozen cars carrying truck containers from the tracks, authorities said. The derailment just before 7 a.m. near the village of Canastota was about five miles from the site of a fiery CSX train wreck last March .... The derailment required Amtrak to temporarily bus rail passengers between Albany and Syracuse."
Tracks and equipment had passed recent safety inspections. Although it's not an issue in this case, whenever there is an accident involving Amtrak and CSX trains or equipment, it's Amtrak's fault according to the agreements they've made with CSX for track access.
