all, we have a limited number of cars and these derailed cars might eventually go back into service. >> reporter: and that flatbed truck then took the cars on their way to the concord yard for storage and for inspection. some of the people living nearby the concord station came to watch because, as you can imagine, it's not a normal thing to see a bart car rolling down a residential street at 7:30 in the morning. now, this derailment happened around 6:30 yesterday evening. there were no passengers on board because the train was on its way to the concord yard. the train operator was not injured. investigators from the public utilities commission and bart safety inspectors have been at the site where the derailment happened since yesterday evening, trying to figure out why the train derailed. so far, no answers. they say it appears the train derailed at an interlocking switch, where the trains switch tracks. again, the train was switching tracks to head to the concord yard for the night. now, back out here live, crews have to remove all the cars off the tracks before they can get

a clear sense of the damage and figure out how much time it's going to take to repair the tracks, then restore service. you can see they have got two of the cars off, two more to go. looks like the crane is getting ready to hoist one of the carcinogen off of the tracks here at the concord station. in the meantime, people who usually travel to and from the concord station on bart are being asked to find alternate plans. allie rasmus, ktvu channel 2news. >> bart has made plans to get riders around the derailment today. people traveling from concord to san francisco or oakland are being advised to catch their trains at the pleasant hill station. bart is providing shuttle buses between the north concord, concord and pleasant hill stations. last night, hundreds of frustrated commuters used bart's shuttle buses to get home. bart says it will continue to provide shuttle service between pleasant hill and the pittsburg/bay point station into the evening. this is not the first time something like this has happened in that area. back in 2011, another bart train derailed near the concord bart station. that train did have passengers

. a bart train derails in concord. two railcars have already been removed from the tracks. another is being cleared at this hour. good morning. welcome back to mornings on 2. i'm claudine wong. >> i'm mike mibach. we are following developing news this morning. major bart delays expected all day, after an out-of-service train suddenly goes off the track. allie rasmus is live this morning in concord, where some progress is being made to remove those cars. allie? >> reporter: well, mike, bottom line we still don't know when the concord station will

reopen. it's certainly not going to happen any time soon. as you can see behind us, they are still at work here. they have made progress this morning. right now, you can see the crane that they have out here. they just finished putting counter weights on it, little bars at the bottom with the red triangles on the wind, putting the counter weights on it before they prepare to lift up another one of these bart cars. these bart cars weigh about 60,000 pounds, so that's why they have the massive crane out here with the counter weights on it, to do that work. now, just before 8:00 this morning, we watched one of those derailed bart cars being hauled away on an oversized flatbed truck, after it was hoisted off the tracks this morning. it was taken to the concord yard maintenance facility. some of the people who live nearby came to watch, because as you can imagine, it's not every day you see a bart car rolling down a residential street. a bart equipment operator here explained that, again, these cars weigh about 60,000 pounds and crews used what's called a spreader bar to lift the cars off the elevated tracks. the equipment operator says the

bart cars are constructed with holes in the top so that the spreader bar can be attached with screws and bolts, then hoist the cars off the track. a bart spokesperson explained this morning that all of this is a very time-consuming process. >> we're doing it as quickly as we can in order to return to normal service. we want to do it in a way that's also safe and in a way that's not going to create further damage that's going to affect people in the future. >> reporter: the derailment of this 10-car bart train happened around 6:30 yesterday evening. there were no passengers on board because the train was on its way to the concord yard. the train operator was not injured. investigators from the public utilities commission and bart safety inspectors have been at the site since yesterday evening, trying to figure out why this train derailed. they don't really know why, don't have an answer yet, but they say so far it appears the train derailed at an interlocking switch, where the trains switch tracks. two remaining bart cars, zig-

zagging the tracks still here at the concord station, still need to be removed before crews can see the damage on the tracks and figure out how long it's going to take to open the concord station. in the meantime, this is a residential area near the concord bart station. we've seen throughout the morning dozens of people coming out with their cameras. some have even set up, brought chairs to watch the work going on here this morning, because it is an unusual thing to see a train derailment like this and crews doing this work to repair it. but for people who are using, plan to use the bart station here at concord, who normally come here, they are being advised to find alternate plans. the concord bart station is closed and there's no time line again on when it will be open. allie rasmus, ktvu channel 2news. >> thanks, allie. people traveling from concord to san francisco or oakland are being advised to catch their trains at the pleasant hill station. bart is providing shuttle buses between the north concord, concord and pleasant hill stations. last night, hundreds of
