A Union Pacific freight train derailed Tuesday afternoon just outside Gordon, Texas, sparking small grass fires and prompting a hazmat response. Emergency crews in Palo Pinto County treated the scene with caution, but officials say no one was hurt and there’s no sign that any of the train cars are leaking. The derailment happened about two miles east of town and involved dozens of cars. Firefighters got the flames under control, and Union Pacific teams are now working to clear the site and investigate what went wrong.
