There's lots of loads going in just not sure if any are coming out. There are almost 40 cars of logs and many cars of chemicals in McAdam yard as I type this destined for the Woodland mill.

A dispatcher for Bucksport's Fire and Emergency Services Department said four cars on the train derailed about 8 p.m. along Route 15, also known as the River Road, near the Orrington town line. She said crews took equipment to deal with a spill of hazardous material, but learned that none of the cars on the train were carrying any potentially harmful material.
