Train Derailed

By: Import User
Updated: February 5, 2007
Crews will be trying to remove one of two tank cars that derailed Monday just outside of Athens. Each tank was carrying more than ten thousand gallons of compressed chlorine witch if air born can kill. The train was bound for Arkansas. Neither tank was damaged in the derailment but crews will be working with care to get the tank back on the track without disturbing the gas. Recovery crews hope to have the job done within in the next 48 hours.
