Kosher Derailment Cleanup

This story shows the sort of people railways occasionally need to clear up the mess from a derailment.

Rabbi Yosef Grossbaum of St. Paul was hired by CPR to oversee the transfer Thursday of kosher canola oil from one big tanker car to another.

It's an unusual blending of railroading with religion, admitted Randy Hansen, damage prevention specialist for CPR.

"We don't do this very often," Hansen said.
