Clean up continues at site of derailment in Goderich

There is still work being done at the site of Monday's train derailment in Goderich.

Goderich Mayor John Grace says crews continue to clean up the site at the P and H property.

"There's a lot of people down there, a lot of heavy equipment," said Grace. "We are waiting for Transport Safety Board to give their report, but it did come down the hill un-manned and went through the P and H or Goderich Elevators property, but it was unmanned."

Grace says there was significant damage to the rail equipment but they won't know the extent of damage to the wharf area until the area is cleaned up.
