Minor derailment on, IIRC, the Ohio River Sub.

12 cars of a 90 car freight train went off the tracks a couple miles south of Moundsville, WV. They were coal hopper cars owned by AEP, headed to Benwood from Parkersburg, WV.

The 12 cars stayed inline and upright; CSX says the rerailing should be done by 9:00a 8/3.
