Ahh, a nice refreshing glass of milk delivered in a tank car that previously delivered a load of diesel fuel. The experts always say that if you knew what was being transported in tank cars, you would never willingly sit in your car at a rail crossing waiting for a train to pass.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$CHOOCHOO$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$!!!

The nastiest shit known to man is transported by rail. The worst part is we are forced to ship it.

ARLINGTON, Texas - A freight train has derailed in Arlington, prompting building evacuations.

The incident happened in the 500 block of Front Street, near City Hall.
As many as 15 cars, including a tanker, have left the tracks, Arlington Fire Department Lt. Darren Whitfield said.
The tanker is leaking an unknown substance and as a precaution officials are evacuating nearby buildings, including the Dyno-Rock indoor climbing facility.
"Those cars can carry anything from milk to diesel fuel," Whitfield said.
It was not immediately clear what caused the derailment.
There were no reports of injuries.
Whitfield said he did not know how long it would take to clean up the mess.
