Summary
| Description |
English: This photograph taken east of the Mulford Road grade crossing in Cherry Valley, Illinois shows some of the piled up DOT-111 tank cars in this accident. Thirteen of the tank cars lost about 324,000 gallons of ethanol due to head and shell breaches, damaged top fittings, or damaged bottom outlet valves.
This represents a release of about 75 percent of the product carried in the 15 derailed tank cars in the pileup. This photograph also demonstrates a consequence of this accident in which several of the tank cars came to rest in and near a tributary of the Rock River and released a significant volume of product that resulted in one of the largest fish kills in Illinois history. |
