A hazmat situation arose in South Philadelphia on Saturday morning after an 11-car train derailed just South of Pattison Avenue and 11th Street around 3 a.m. 


NBC 10 reports that crews rushed to the tracks where they found the CSX train, which contained crude oil, derailed but upright. 


No leaks were detected, according to a CSX spokesman. 


Other train activity was not affected but an investigation is underway to determine the cause of the derailment.
