A historic bridge in Portland, Oregon, was shut down Monday morning after a derailed train car was seen leaning against a bridge support. Two cars had fully derailed on a Union Pacific line on the east side of the century-old Steel Bridge. “One train car is leaning against bridge structural support column,” Portland Fire and Rescue stated on X. “Bridge has been shut down and is now completely closed to all train, vehicle, pedestrian traffic.

There were no reported injuries in the wreck and no reported concerns about hazardous materials. “This will be a protracted incident that will be addressed in coordination with Union Pacific as a plan is developed for mitigation of this derailment,” Portland Fire and Rescue said. CNN reached out to Union Pacific for more information. The derailment happened after 35 train cars derailed in New Mexico on Friday, prompting evacuations that lasted until Sunday.
