CSX derailment near Markleton, Pa.

...Last evening I received some great digital photos showing the derailed cars on CSX near Markleton, Pa. Half a dozen tank cars and lumber cars were visible with much track ripped up...Does anyone have any details what happened at this site...Looks like both tracks are damaged.

...In this terrain you would be hard pressed to find a road to install crossing lights.
