Empty Oil Train Derails in Casselton, Site of Previous Crash in North Dakota 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
Another crude oil train has derailed in Casselton, North Dakota. The
town was the site of a prior derailment in December when a train
carrying volatile oil from the Bakken Shale caught fire, prompting the
evacuation of half the town. This time the oil cars were empty, so there
was no explosion.
