CSX Q64714 Derailment Byromville Georgia
Author: NSSpike

Getting reports that CSX Q64714 has derailed in the town of Byromville Georgia where the CSX main goes over GA Hiway 90 southeast of town. Byromville is currently being evacuated due to a propane leak.
Only information I have at this time.

From the pictures I saw, the railroad bridge collapsed (or at least partially collapsed).

Edit:  Bridge is damaged but didn’t collapse.

Reports of up to 30 cars derailed.  Single track area between Dooling and Cotton.  I'm guessing the intermodals will reroute over Georgia Sub, then down S line via Savannah.

If that's the bridge I'm thinking of it still had painted ACL markings...
(Check of Google Maps confirms that)

Hopefully the crew is okay...  That's what counts.
