According to the Harrisburg Patriot-News, no railcar caught fire. The fire involved a transfer pipe at a rail-served terminal just east of Mount Joy. The newspaper article does not mention the injured worker.

The fire is now out and Amtrak service is being restored.

AMTRAK has just restored Keystone service between Lancaster and Harrisburg.
