caught on video: train derailment and explosion in texarkana
October 15, 2005 - The Texarkana derailment occurred when a Union Pacific train hit the back of another freight train at around 5:00 am in the switchyard. Eight cars derailed including a tanker containing propylene that caught on fire. Two homes were destroyed and several vehicles were totaled in the area surrounding the Texarkana derailment. Reports state that at one point, the smoke was so thick it blocked out daylight. Initially police has reason to believe that the chemical involved was vinyl acetate which releases poisonous fumes, prompting them to go door to door urging thousands of homeowners close to the derailment to move to the north side of town. It was later determined that the chemical that caught fire was propylene. Propylene is a byproduct produced in petroleum refining and is used in plastic
