SHOCK: There is another train derailment of tanker trucks carrying vinyl chloride in Enoree, South Carolina on a CSX Transportation rail line.

I sincerely hope they don't do a burn-off; I'm 55 miles away from there. It would screw up a couple of larger cities like Greenville and Spartanburg as well. Odd about all the train derailments; however, curious about what the average is in a given year.

Uhhh, are we under attack?
Police said there are no guard arms or lights at this crossing where the crash took place, but that the driver of the truck should have had a clear line of sight to see the train coming.
Views from Air 11 show several cars off of the tracks near the crash. The Splendora Police Department said about 15 cars derailed in the crash.
Hazmat crews are on the scene but there are no leaks from the cars. They are cleaning up some of the spilled diesel fuel from the truck. Police said it could in a total of 15 hours to clear the scene.
