WEST ALLIS, Wis. (AP) -- Union Pacific says crews are making "good progress" repairing but haven't reopened a stretch of track where several coal cars derailed near Milwaukee.
 
 
No one was hurt in the accident, including the two workers on the train.
 
Union Pacific spokeswoman Raquel Espinoza said on Sunday that the track should reopen sometime Monday. The cause of the derailment is still under investigation.
 
Espinoza says the train originated in Bill, Wyoming and was headed for Butler, Wisconsin.
