UP Derailment near Durkee Loop, OR

Kind of a vague report of 21 empty autoracks on their sides at or near the Durkee Loop in northeast Oregon east of Baker.

Heck I thought the Canby, OR derailment was the third... in just 8-days in Oregon.
They flopped ten cars on their sides at Albina (Portland) on the 29th, 
This happened on the 4th.
