A CSX train derailment on Tuesday morning forced residents to evacuate their homes or shelter in place after a railcar leaked molten sulfur, creating a dangerous gas plume. The Trenton Fire Department reported that fewer than 100 homes were impacted by the incident, which occurred around 6:30 a.m.

Chuck Sadler with the Trenton Voluntary Fire Department received a page stating that several CSX cars had rolled off the tracks. He was one of the first people on the scene. “The accident scene was within a mile of my house, less than a mile. So, we were there pretty quickly,” Sadler said.

“Two or three of us got there, and it was quite a bit more than we expected.” “There was some smoke, low-hanging smoke, and did notice like a little irritation to the throat, but nothing severe. And we just got upwind of it and stayed there.”

As firefighters realized one of the rail cars was leaking molten sulfur, they began alerting those who live within a mile of the derailment, telling residents to leave their homes or shelter in place with their HVAC systems turned off. Frank Amaro lives near Highway 41, about a mile from where the train derailed.
