A train has derailed in northern Alberta, leaking sulphur into the air.
Wood Buffalo RCMP say a CN train jumped the track 10 km south of Anzac around 12:30 p.m. on Thursday.
CN says the cars that derailed were filled with sulphur and one of them was punctured and smoldering.
The sulphur has been contained and RCMP say there is no risk to anyone.
It’s not clear what caused the train to derail.
