GATINEAU, QUE.—The Transportation Safety Board of Canada will release its report on the deadly Lac-Mégantic train derailment later this month.
The safety board says it will hold a news conference in the Quebec town on Aug. 19.
A train carrying crude oil derailed and exploded in Lac-Mégantic on July 6, 2013, wiping out dozens of buildings and killing 47 people.
Three employees of the now-insolvent Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway, the company at the centre of the disaster, have each been charged with 47 counts of criminal negligence causing death, one for each victim of the crash.
