Stalled Train Causes Evening Traffic Jam

Winnipeg Manitoba - A train stalled near the corner of Fermor Avenue and Archibald Street caused a late evening traffic jam in the city's south end yesterday.
 
Winnipeg police Insp. James Poole said police and CP Rail officials were called to the scene about 8 p.m.
 
"There was a train stalled on the CP line," said Poole. "It's apparently a mile long and they (called) for a tow train."
 
Reports said Archibald traffic was backed up until at least Cottonwood Road around 8:30 p.m. Poole said traffic was expected to remain cut off for 30 minutes to an hour after the stall.
