This should back traffic up for hours.....
The track is f'd up too. Several box cars slid off and are sitting between rails and the road.

Probably just venting off.. They have cars that do that to release pressure..

Didn't look like venting to me

Was it coming out of the top or bottom from a pipe?

Any word of evacuations in the area?

They said a haz mat team was on the way to check it out.

Now that I think about it. It was coming from the wheel area of a boxcar.

Word is the tanks were empty. This is coming from a brpd officer. Take it fwiw
