Palestine Oh and Wildwoodood train tracks
Any concern on possible train derailments close to The Villages? Not that I except it should happen concerned. No one expects it to happen in their backyard.

I would be more concerned about truck accidents on the Turnpike and I-75 that seems to be where all the action is around here.
|
Sinkholes, hurricanes, tornados, lightning strikes, crazy drivers, dog poop and meth heads concern me more.

Large rail yard in Wildwood off 301 near 44. Just yesterday I got caught by a train. No exaggeration, it must have had 125+ cars. Many of them were tankers. This train was so long it had another running locomotive in the middle of the thing.
I was very close to the train as it was passing, and Ohio incident was constantly on my mind. Those poor folks in that town. No doubt the State and Feds would be handling this matter differently if it happened in an affluent area. |

Hopefully we will be told what caused the derailment. Mechanical failure of one of the train cars or something wrong with the tracks. My money is on poorly maintained rail tracks. A prudent person would have an inspection done of the rail line before a train carrying dangerous chemicals was allowed to move. Unfortunately, does a prudent person exist?
