Video does have a short advertisement first, then it starts the fire.

Video of a BNSF engine on fire at Argentine yard in Kansas City, KS. One of the local news stations' helicopters grabbed some interesting footage.
Can't believe the neighbor was as scared as he was....Love how the media makes things sound soooo scary constantly.

Leave it to the media to make the railroads look bad! As always! :evil:

I have pictures of extensive fire damage to locomotives and total melt downs! Nasty!

Who brought the marshmallows!? Good aerials though despite the commentary.
