A train “struck debris” on the tracks near Agassiz, B.C – causing a fuel leak and forcing all of the passengers to disembark, according to VIA Rail.

“The impact caused damage to the engine and some train cars,” an emailed statement from the company says.
“None of the 121 passengers or crew members on board were injured in the incident, but the damage caused a fuel leak, and the train was not able to proceed.”
According to VIA Rail, the scene was secured and all of the passengers were transported by bus to Vancouver, Kamloops or Jasper.
The incident is being investigated by the Canadian Pacific Kansas City railroad police and the RCMP.
