Car Crash Bensalem Pennsylvania in Bensalem, Pennsylvania: A 72-car CSX freight train traveling eastbound derailed between Street Road and the Neshaminy Falls train station in Bensalem shortly after 2 p.m. on June 30, 2026, with 16 cars jumping the tracks into a roadbed. No one was injured, but three derailed cars displayed hazardous material placards, prompting door-to-door evacuations on Grove Avenue and Old Lincoln Highway and a Bucks County shelter-in-place alert for residents within a one-mile radius. Emergency and Hazmat crews confirmed no hazardous materials leaked. SEPTA suspended commuter service for five hours, and the incident remained under investigation by CSX, with the Federal Railroad Administration potentially involved.
