MONTREAL \u2013 Police northeast of Montreal say no injuries were reported and nothing was spilled after a CN Rail train went off the tracks on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Officers in the suburban city of Repentigny say railway investigators will carry out on-site dismantling and cleanup work heading into Monday.<\/p>\n

They say no leaks, fires or injuries have been reported, and that none of the railcars contained hazardous materials.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A railway spokesperson says 45 train cars derailed and that while three had previously transported diesel, they were not loaded.<\/p>\n

Police earlier said the derailment knocked out power to a little more than 1,000 Hydro-Qu\u00e9bec customers, and the utility\u2019s website did not show an estimated restoration time.<\/p>\n

Officials said service would be restored by early Monday but that there could be localized outages overnight.<\/p>\n
