- From staff and wire reports

A freight train derailed in southwest Indiana, and several train cars caught fire, possibly because of a propane leak, forcing the evacuation of nearby homes Monday. The train derailed Sunday near a trailer park in Princeton, about 150 miles southwest of Indianapol­is. No one was injured, Indiana State Police spokesman Sgt. Curt Durnil said. Rail operator CSX said the cause is under investigat­ion.
