BNSF had an empty grain train derail at Cunningham, WA on the Lakeside Sub. (former NP between Spokane and Pasco). This must have happened late Saturday or very early Sunday. Looks like 8 to 10 cars on the ground.
Several trains parked in sidings west of Spokane. The Portland section of the Empire Builder was held at Spokane. I assume the passengers were bussed.
Traffic was beginning to move again mid afternoon Sunday.
