Surveillance video obtained exclusively by FOX 8 News showed sparks coming from the engine as the train crossed Magyar Street near Wheeling Street before several cars flew off the tracks.
The Wellington Fire Department said no one was hurt and there was no ongoing public danger.
Assistant Wellington Fire Chief Bill Brown said two CSX crew members on board reported that the derailment occurred as they tried to slow the train while it approached the downtown area of the village.
