Officials report the train was carrying "hazardous materials, prompting Union Pacific to monitor air quality at the site of the crash, according to the Splendora Police Department."
Sabotage
You see what happens when you put a nickel on the track, son?
Inflation, in my day it was a penny!!
“Talked to man last night, gonna do a little favor for him....”
Switch man sleeping
train hundred and two
is on the wrong track and it’s headed for you...’’
Old Springsteen song about a dude on a suicide mission. The Band did it good.
Wait for it Biden and the climate cult will outlaw hazardous materials.
YOU WILL HAVE NOTHING AND LIKE IT
I have seen where several people over the years have tried to beat the train. One kid driving flew around the train and got past it! He forgot he had 10 feet of car still behind him which did not get past the train.

I remember years ago when some college kids tried to stop a train hauling spent uranium fuel from a power plant.
They were arrested and as the train moved on they went to screaming and crying like the world was coming to an end.
One time, a did drive a locomotive at a railroad museum at it is not easy.
Last verse before the chorus is chilling: I got the kind of debt no honest man can pay. And: talked to a man last night gonna do a little favor for him.
Freaks me to the core.
And here I thought my hillbilly murder music was disturbing......
Interesting link. The derailments do not seem to follow a random pattern—12 involving hazardous chemicals in 1978 and 6 of them were in a four week period beginning January 30th. Many of the others were bunched.
There looks to be a story, or several stories.
“ do not seem to follow a random pattern—12 involving hazardous chemicals in 1978 and 6 of them were in a four week period ”
Random patterns often seem to “bunch up” events or numbers because the sample size is too small. For example, if you deal six cards from a well-shuffled deck, and three of them are clubs, that seems to go against the idea of randomness, but is only slightly higher than the odds predict.
Pickup driver drove into the train. From the radio reports, it was either a suicide or drunk driving.
