At the site of the fatal derailed train accident was a washout.

The Transportation Safety Board will continue to investigate the situation because they cannot definitively say the accident happened as a result of the washout.

RCMP say a 38-year-old, who died, and a 59-year-old were trapped in the locomotive of a freight train for several hours after it derailed.

The man who died was the train conductor and the other employee was an engineer.
