That is the stinkiest stuff on God's green earth-not to even mention corosive. Poor Tennessee, even if the Volunteers have the best team ever, everyone will be saying they stink, this year.

All BS aside, my sympathy to those who will be cleaning up this mess, and prayers that all anywhere close to the accident are safe and stay that way.

Is it really hot in TN today. I read when the temp gets above 90 the tracks can expand and cause this sort of accident.

>Train Accident in Farragut, TN spewing Sulphuric Acid

Definite indigestion problem there.  The map link is busy.  Does anyone know how far this is from Nashville or which direction the gas cloud is going?
