LONGUEUIL, Que.—People in a part of Longueuil, Que., were being asked to stay indoors with their doors and windows closed on Thursday after a train derailed in the morning, spilling an unknown quantity of hydrogen peroxide.
Longueuil Mayor Catherine Fournier told reporters just before 3 p.m. that the situation was “under control” but that the confinement order remained in place, and that both rail traffic and vehicle traffic on nearby Highway 116 remained shut down.
