I like how the article ends in describing the size of the flames while also specifically saying "DO NOT GO OUT TO LOOK AT THE FIRE".

Fucking get away from the burning chemicals. Trains carry bad shit. Ohmy gosh

I actually worked this derailment. Outside of Rawlins. Union Pacific.

The worst part of this tragedy is that it was filmed vertically

Leave it to the best camera operators to pan away from the explosion at the second best part

ME: How do you know it's Wyoming... HER: "Holy Cannoli" ME: Yep, that's Wyoming.

Truckers ain't got time for explosions. "On the road again..."

"wtf are you talking about! I got deadlines to meet!" - Trucker, probably.

Not in a position or trained to help, and would put themselves and their cargo at risk if they stop. Keep on trucking.

Am trucker, can confirm this. Catastrophic 100 car pile up? That's too bad, I'll take county road 6 instead. Got a 4am delivery to make.
QueefBurglarSixtyNine
One time I was driving through white-out snow in CO. The truckers saw this as an opportunity to speed up. Poop was coming out of me.
biblioteker
I hit whiteout conditions in PA, slowed down and stopped on the shoulder. Idiots were speeding up, collisions ensued.

Safest thing you can do is get the hell out of there. This isn't a movie. You don't have plot armor
AbacusFinch
Makes me think of that explosion in china where people went to check out the initial one and then a bigger one occured

+1 for current event. Sweetwater County, WY (June 13, 2020)

What was the train carrying? Ford Pintos?
Schroederkilledthecat
Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) and alcohol from what I read

These protests are getting out of hand

The article even says "Fire District is on scene with multiple units as well Sweetwater County Fire, and BLM."
spiceass9000
I was joking lol but it does make it funnier they’re actually there
ravenfool
I don't wanna be *that* guy but that's Bureau of Land Management lol

Now it’s more funny

Can anyone science me on why that fireball just floated into the sky like that?
TheFeralDog
Petroleum gas in a pressurized train car.

Northernwest
When it explodes it throw the material in the tank out. Burns as it goes up in the air. This was likely an LPG tanks which is a gas.
Northernwest
Rawilla's link on BLEVE's will explain why they explode. Then go watch some BLEVE vidoes. Big booms!
ScubaSteve6933
Is this also why there was no loud boom? This looked like something that should’ve made a lot of noise? (based on zero boom knowledge)
Northernwest
Didn't think of the boom. May have been a release and not a BLEVE.
OdinYggd
LPG in a tank is liquid under pressure. But it becomes gas when the pressure is released.
Northernwest
Yes, lots of energy waiting to erupt if things go wrong

Big Loud Explosion that Vaporizes Everyone?

Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion for those wondering.

I think "holy cannoli" pretty much sums it up

The restraint is beyond me. I’d be effing and blinding like mad

I reached this to hear that again, not see the explosion.
drduffer
Not far from Utah. Those Mormons can really bring it.
HatinS8N
There’s not that many people in Wyoming
Prim3Example
Well shoot dang.
OfficialBenderRodriguez
Well, it's Wyoming...
Gluseph
My guess is that there is a kid in the car
AquaHair
Christians who think swearing is the worst thing ever speak this way regardless.
Gluseph
True but I've met a lot more people who dont swear around kids than people who dont swear at all.
MadamPuddifoot
Which really makes no sense cuz in the real world there are people like me, adults, who say what they want.
YouCanCallMeWilliam
Fucking right they are!!

Nobody died, in case anybody cared.
geekoffury
My first thought was to hope that everyone made it out ok, so thanks for letting us know.
flaskfullofcoffee
Except for the cameraman
XenoHorse
So I can enjoy the cool explosion! Yes!
PonySlaystation5
Thank you, I do care.
LaikaTheSpaceBitch

AlmightyUnderwaterChicken

Zan11

OneZebraInAHerdOfWildebeests
So.. almost all of Wyoming
ASonOfALich
That's good to know, now I can laugh at it without feeling like shit.
niflster
Thank you, was my actual first thought
TheFeralDog
I do but was hoping for death....jk jk. I may need to start seeing a therapist
c00lbeans69
I was looking for this info! The article didn't mention any injuries or fatalities
jennym123
Quite a bit. Thank you.
pjm82
Anybody know what the hell that train was hauling?
LSUguy
Liquid petroleum and alcohol

But they're all on the train that just exploded.

Who's the fucking guy filming that decided to film smoke during an explosion? Like yea, better get that smoke guy

SQUIRREL!!!
BrushesofDoom
Nah, fuck that for once we have a video where someone doesn’t run and switch angles 30times like they’re off-roading on a mountain.
PleaseRespectMyAsshole
That is exactly what I was thinking! "There's like a 200 foot fireball in front of you! What in the fuck are you filming?!"
Stuffsalotamuff
I thought of that too and could only come to the conclusion that they possibly realized, for a split second they could be 1/2
Stuffsalotamuff
Filming the deaths of many people. But most likely they were just kinda in shock of what they were seeing. 2/2
PonySlaystation5
You see and feel this right in front of you and try to stay calm and focused..... this isn't a Hollywood movie.
Housemaster
*IMGUR DEMANDS STEADY, WELL FRAMED AND FOCUSED SHOTS. EVEN WHEN FACED WITH EXPLOSIONS YOU MUST NOT FALTER!*
Barrum
You're right, how dare I make fun of a guy for filming smoke. This is a very serious website where we aren't permitted to criticize people
Housemaster
Yikes! I was making a joke, didn't mean to offend you buddy
