Looks like some tanker cars in the video.
About the third or so derailment in the past 2-4 days....coincidence or routinely happens.
“About the third or so derailment in the past 2-4 days....coincidence or routinely happens.”
Yeah, there does seem to be a spate of derailments lately.
Maybe they should have let rail workers have some sick days
One in Houston area today, also.
18 wheeler played chicken with a train and lost.
“The cargo on the train included some hazardous materials, prompting Union Pacific to monitor air quality at the site of the crash, according to the Splendora Police Department.”
Well, don’t worry... Biden Sec of Transportation Pete Buttijuggs is on the job! I’m sure he’s prancing his way down there to make sure they’re using correct pronouns.
Obviously an illegal with a grease gun causing this.
Is the railroad becoming WOKE also?
Are the same folks derailing our trains as are burning up our chicken ranches and food processing plants? Something is going on here. I didn’t include the shooting up of our power stations because that looks too much like too easily replicated copycatism.
“ Biden Sec of Transportation Pete Buttijuggs is on the job! ”
Yes. He says that construction and utility workers in POC neighborhoods are too white…..
Say Peter, how are those supply chain problems going? Got all the ports cleared out? Got enough drivers? And all that infrastructure money. Where’d that go? And what about the airlines and airports?
I want to hope that this isn't another conspiracy theory that's going to turn out to be true.
But "Never attribute malice to what can adequately be explained by incompetence."
It has to be right wing extremists, or white nationalists, or white Christian Catholic nationalists, or something.
I live in the area and there were no hazardous material in board.
Not according to local authorities.
What did this have to do with that ?
Remember the near-strike of railroad workers late last fall?
Sick leave was one of the issues the unions were pressing.
As a low level rail fan, this seems to be routine, just getting reported more. Amongst the problems with the US railroads is their willingness to tolerate an appalling rate of derailments.

I know a family who all work for the rail roads…..after hearing some of their talk over the “ new” railroad union contracts, “ shutting down” the railroad by angry workers / employees is a given….from the grease monkey failing to grease the axle hub assemblies to the scheduler failing to call a replacement….
I am surprised to see you are the only one mentioning an obvious cause of recent rail problems…..what happened to thinkers? ….Americans no longer reason, just shovel in all of our corrupted western media…. From Biden’s vax hoax to his Ukie war….
Makes sense. It’s the flavor of the month.
