Jus heard that there was a derailment overnight on the redline train. it was not in service and I guess was heading back to the yard when it derailed. Anyone know which cars were involved?

It was an after hours non revenue shop move from Brentwood to Greenbelt, the car that derailed (1090) was the mate to the car involved in the fire (1091) at the Silver Spring station on 06 14 2013.
