Indeed. Let's just hope this is a derailment because of mechanical malfunction or something less sinister than terrorism.

Per FNC: Eye-witnesses reporting shaking, some movement, sparks. Sounds like a derailment?

She's gonna get you for that!

Seriously, this seems like a malfunction or an accident according to witnesses.

Sounds like it may have been a minor derailment that created sparks. Lack of a major fire suggests that perhaps the sparks ignited grease, trash, soot, etc. that often litter the track area but wouldn't be in abundance.

So far no explanation, just smoke.. I hope they didn't panic.. but considering today's news thats possible.

Sounds like it. I hope.

Fox reporting everyone on the train(s) evacuated safely.

Even if NOTHING happened in the Chicago train situation, it will crowd out the news from Bob Novak's revelations about who leaked.

Watch my words, the major news medium will use this to occupy their time.
