Stunning. All this from...whatever was in those trains.
Did we ever find out what was in those trains?

Great Post....This was one hell of an explosion!
From the site linked above:
"According to an UN Office For The Coordination Of Humanitarian Affairs Report from 24 April 2004, the explosion resulted from the contact of two train wagons carrying ammonium nitrate with a wagon containing fuel oil. Each wagon contained 40 MT of ammonium nitrate which were enroute to a construction site for the Pakma-cheol san irrigation project. This resulted in a massive explosion creating a large crater and leveling everything in a 500 m radius."

Re #10
Items mentioned in the news report so far: ammonium nitrate, fuel oil, liquid propane gas, and dynamite.
Maybe all of them or maybe some of them, who knows?
