Train Derailment In The Garden State
Train accidents are far more common than you might imagine. While train accidents aren’t as common as auto accidents, they are often deadlier. Because of their high rate of speed and immense size, trains take a long time to come to a complete stop. They can unleash a path of destruction that stretches for miles before stopping.
A freight train derailed on a railroad bridge that has had problems before, toppling tanker cars partially into a creek and causing a leak of hazardous gas that was blamed for sickening dozens of people.
