Lake Superior Tribe Criticizes Railroad Over Derailment Response

Tribal and emergency response agencies say they weren’t notified until hours after a BNSF train derailed this past weekend close to the Wisconsin-Minnesota border and near the St. Louis River that runs into Lake Superior.

The derailment occurred on the Fond du Lac reservation in Minnesota at around 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, about 30 minutes away from the Wisconsin border.
