A train derailed in Wilmington early Friday morning, with eight cars coming off the tracks.

BNSF Railway said the derailment occurred at about 2:40 a.m., though the cause is unknown and remains under investigation.

"There were no injuries reported, and no hazardous materials were compromised," said Lena Kent, general director of public affairs for BNSF.

The derailed cars are expected to be back on track by 3 p.m. today.

Aerial footage from Sky5 showed heavy machinery on scene to help put the train cars upright and back on the tracks.
