Coming into work this morning I heard on the radio that at around 4:15AM a
freight train derailed (at least five cars) and there was an explosion. The
train was known to be carrying at least seven different hazardous substances. A
large cloud has formed over the area (one motorist said the explosion looked
like an atom bomb mushroom). Interstate 15 has been shutdown in both
directions. I believe it is closed between Highway 395 and the 215/15
junction. The area around the derailment (junction of 138 and 15) has been
evacuated.
