The other day, while going to Tee Pee Trading Post to pick up some stogies, I saw that the train derailment site was cleared. Not a trace (at least from Interstate 40) of the derailment was seen.
AZFamily reported that a federal agency is taking over the investigation over the cause of the derailment.

MANUELITO, N.M. (AP/AZFamily) — The Federal Railroad Administration is now leading the investigation of last month’s fiery train derailment near the Arizona-New Mexico border.
National Transportation Safety Board officials said Thursday that the FRA will determine the probable cause of the April 26 derailment.
NTSB investigators have examined the track and derailed tank cars and will focus on the performance of the tank cars and emergency response actions.
