On July 5, 2019, at 8:40 PM, 11 freight cars derailed from westbound NS 34A on their way up the mountain on track 3 at world famous Horseshoe Curve PT242. The engines broke away shortly after and the train cars braked to a stop. Some cars fell over blocking track 2. The wreck was cleaned up promptly and all three tracks were reopened in the days following the derailment. There were no reported injuries. The cause is under investigation.
