JOPLIN, MO.--- Murphy Boulevard between 4th and 7th and Minnesota Avenue from 7th to Murphy were blocked off as crews worked today to get five cars from a Missouri and Northern Arkansas train back on the track. The train derailed last night around 9:30 as it was headed toward Tamko in Joplin. Crews say they decided to wait until daylight to begin getting the cars back on the line. Nobody was injured and no hazardous material spilled.
