Casselton, ND - A train crashed and derailed just before 2:20 PM (MST) at 35th Street and 154th Avenue Southwest, said Sgt. Tara Morris of the Cass County Sheriff’s Office. A bulk oil car is on fire and releasing toxic, black smoke, Casselton Fire Department officials said.

Officials are urging community members living within a two-mile radius to stay indoors to avoid contact with the smoke.

Huge plumes of smoke and flames can be seen for miles all around.

A Burlington North Santa Fe train was involved in the crash.
