An eighteen-wheeler that got stuck on train tracks in Mer Rouge, Louisiana was annihilated by a freight train on October 5. The truck driver was able to get away in time to save his life. Two train engineers sustained injuries for which they were treated at a local hospital. Both will recover. A hasty evacuation of homes in the immediate area was ordered after it was learned that one of the train cars was leaking a chemical gas. Once the gas was determined to be argon, the evacuation was called off and the cleanup began. “Holy mother of moo-moo!”
If it's compressed, there's danger of shrapnel if a tank ruptures. If it's refrigerated, then there's the danger of a river of cryogenic fluid pouring down the street.
All in all - best get everyone clear at least until it's made secure.
