Soybean oil train derails in Iowa


Recommended Posts

I really don't exactly know why I'm posting this, except for that my husband spotted this and said, "well, there went your candles."  It didn't sound as though the oil had leaked out of the containers.

 

"A train derailed Sunday morning in northwestern Iowa, sending 20 cars carrying soybean oil and sand into the Floyd River, and heavy rain might have caused the derailment.  According to the Des Moines Register, the bridge collapsed beneath the Union Pacific train, sending the cars into the waterway Sunday morning."
