Per field report, a CSX freight on the ground at Ironville and it doesn't sound too good.

Wow great reporting. Said the train had 186 cars all full of a highly volatile liquid. Way to freak the hell out of people!

But it's the news! Surely they have all the resources needed to provide the most accurate and recent updates, as well as a strong regard for ensuring the truth of all reports to not have been stretched! :lol:

I just read the story. I didn't read that into it at all, they said one tank cars was secure and not leaking and was load with toluol, a highly flammable chemical.
Interesting thing is that a derailed car is holding up a high tension power line tower. Rather high voltage in play. DOn't want anything to happen with that to say the least.
And 187 cars....bwahahaha. That in itself is insane. Then again the share price continues to go up. I have enough in stock to call out a moron when I see one though. And that is MORONIC.
