The Environmentalists’ Train Wreck Isn’t Slowing Down
derailed train crude oilJust days before Christmas, as parcels were being prepared and stockings stuffed, ten rail cars carrying crude oil from North Dakota, destined for a nearby Phillips 66 refinery, derailed along a section of BNSF track.
The incident occurred just south of the Canadian border and was considered a low-speed derailment.
While a plume of smoke billowed from some of the derailed tanker cars after they ignited, there were ultimately no injuries.
The derailment caused some oil to spill and necessitated the evacuation of local residents closest to the incident.
