Fiery Train Derailment & Partial Bridge Collapse in Tempe, Ari.

CBS 5 Tempe
quote:
Union Pacific said as many as 10 train cars derailed at about 6:15 a.m. The south side of the bridge then collapsed and caught fire. A spokesman said its crew was not hurt but one person at the park was treated for smoke inhalation.
Union Pacific spokesman Tim McMahan said two of the three tanker cars on the ground under the bridge contained cyclohexanone. The third contained a rubber material. "None are reported leaking, and no tank cars were involved in the fire," he said. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, cyclohexanone is a colorless oily liquid that is both flammable and an irritant. It's mostly used for the production of nylon.
The cars that burned for hours were carrying lumber, some of which fell into the lake.

What's the big mound behind the building in pic 3? Looks like a garbage pile.

That's a small mountain. You see, outside of Louisiana there are these things called "elevation changes" and they involve things called "hills, bluffs, mountains and valleys."

The tracks and bridge had covid...
Nurse and hubby have hiked the big pile in pic 3 but he got hurt on the hike.

Interested to know what caused the fire. Looks like it started on one of the centerbeam cars. Could've been sparks from the rails.
Then again it's 2020 and railroads are racist, so an arsonist is also possible.
