Hazmat Emergency Train Derailment, Livingston Louisiana 1982 | Oil ...

On the early morning of September 28, 1982, Illinois Central Gulf Railroad freight train) derailed 43 cars on the single main track in Livingston, Louisiana. Of the derailed cars, 36 were tank cars; 27 of these cars contained various regulated hazardous or toxic chemical commodities, 2 contained nonregulated hazardous materials, and 5 contained flammable petroleum products. A total of 20 tank cars were punctured or breached in the derailment. Fires broke out in the wreckage, and smoke and toxic gases were released into the atmosphere. Thermally-induced explosions of two tank cars that had not been punctured caused them to rocket violently. About 3000 persons living within a 5-mile radius of the derailment site were evacuated for as long as 2 weeks. Nineteen residences and other buildings in Livingston were destroyed or severely damaged. More than 200000 gallons of toxic chemical product were spilled and absorbed into the ground, requiring extensive excavation of contaminated soil and its transportation to a distant dump site. This resulted in long-term closure of the railroad line and an adjacent highway. Property damage was estimated to be in excess of million. For more details on this incident, go to the National Transportation Safety Board report at www.ntsb.gov . This clip is from the 1983 EPA 25 minutes film, Anatomy of a Crisis. The entire film is available at the Internet Archives.

@Reptile0000 Conspiracy theorists deal with conspiracies you dumb ass,it’s not an insult to call someone a conspiracy theorist.Patriotism is a lie for fools like you to have something to believe in.Real patriotism , religion and politics is defending the TRUTH and truth only.”Democracy saving humanity”, you should read that again with a loud voice and listen to yourself.
