Train Car Uncoupling Closes Ashton Avenue in North Adams
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Ashton Avenue was closed for nearly two hours on Saturday after one of the cars on a westbound train uncoupled.
The track runs along the north side of the Hoosac River and crosses Ashton Avenue near the Blackinton Mill.
Firefighters, Northern Berkshire EMS and North Adams and Williamstown Police responded to the scene. Railroad crews arrived to resolve the issues.
"Although people may have heard that there was a train derailment it has been confirmed that there is no derailment," according to a post by the Northern Berkshire Emergency Planning Committee at about 6:30 p.m.
"Train crews are currently working to make repairs, which should be complete within the hour."
There were no injuries and no cars off the track though residents reported a loud bang when the coupler broke.
