Albany-Two train cars derailed this afternoon right behind a south Dougherty County neighborhood.

A Georgia/Florida Railnet train was taking materials to a tire company when two cars jumped the tracks and fell over.

No one was hurt. Workers uprighted the cars and put them back on the track. Utilco President, Buddy Bryan says, "We think it possibly was harmonic rock that started the car rocking that caused them to derail."

Buddy Bryan says this is not the first time this has happened on this railroad track.
