Train Derailment Closes Route 11 in Masardis

MASARDIS - Earlier this afternoon, a tractor-trailer struck a train on Route 11 in Masardis. Two empty rail cars derailed. Route 11 will be closed for several hours while crews work to get a crane on site to lift the rail cars. MaineDOT is setting up a detour route for vehicle traffic. This part of rail track is owned by MaineDOT. The train was being operated by Maine Northern Railway.
