UP Derailment Closes Brooklyn Sub at Coalca

The MPDWC-05 (I think) hit a tree at Coalca, OR around 1:30 am derailing three units and around ten cars mostly centerbeams of lumber. Derailment occurred south of the south siding switch at a place called "New Era" and may have impacted a small bridge which may complicate service restoration. Too dark to tell extent of damage.

OPR is not affected at this time since our service is from Salem to the south but anything moving to Salem from Albina during the week could impact next week's car supply.
