    NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (WRIC) — A CSX freight train derailment caused delays and the cancellation of two Amtrak trains on Saturday evening.

    According to a CSX spokesperson, at around 2 p.m. on Saturday, Sept 28. a CSX train derailed after it struck two trees on the mainline tracks near Denbigh Boulevard and Richneck Road in Newport News.

    All traffic was temporarily halted as a result of the derailment while crews worked to put the locomotive back on the tracks.

    The Amtrak Northeast’s X page posted about the cancellation of Train 124 and Train 99 — both traveling between Richmond and Newport News — as a result of the derailment, as well as delays.
