"Derailment Could Affect Monday Commute"
Nov 17th - 12:45pm

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "BOWIE, Md. - Amtrak trains heading north out of Washington faced delays of up to 20 minutes Friday and commuter rail service was sharply curtailed as crews worked to clear a derailment.

Delays on Amtrak were expected to last throughout Friday. Officials with the MARC commuter rail, which canceled trains on the Penn Line between Washington and Baltimore, said it was possible service could even be affected Monday.

Three CSX Corp. coal cars derailed about 7:25 p.m. Thursday in Bowie, about 15 miles outside of Washington. The derailed cars pulled down electrical power lines. It was unclear what the cause was, or if severe weather that had passed through a few hours earlier was to blame."
