Two railway crew members were sent to hospital after multiple locomotives derailed and sparked a fire east of Revelstoke, B.C.

Terry Cunha, a spokesman for Canadian Pacific Kansas City(CPKC) railway, confirmed the incident occurred at approximately 10 p.m. Friday (Feb. 16), about 13 kilometres east of Revelstoke.

A train was stopped on the tracks when another train drove into the back of it, said Cunha. The collision caused four locomotives carrying grain on the stopped train to derail.
