Cleaning up freight train derailment in Emmet, Arkansas

[@justjoe942]

Better the beer, for the residents, than toxic chemicals.

We were driving home from Hot Springs that Sunday afternoon trying to do some train spotting videos and that’s when we drove down the line in emmet and saw that. That’s absolutely crazy but at least it’s beer though.

Very good coverage on yet another sad derailment. We have some bad curves on the freeway here in Milwaukee and a couple times a year a truck tips over spelling beer but this sheet volume is astounding

That used to be Missouri Pacific Railroad and I worked for them . I worked a derailment at the same location back in 1979 or 1980 . It was in December and very cold . We burned crossties to try to stay warm . Sleeting and rain made it miserable . Tough 5 days and 4 nights that I was on site and worked without rest , I was able to sleep in my company truck after they got the trains running but not much rest . Still a lot of work had to be done after each train as the track would settle and have to tamped and brought back to a safe condition without the low spots that would allow the train cars coming uncoupled .

Now, that's some serious alcohol abuse. Hope everyone is ok

[@davidmihevc3990]

I was going to say the same thing. 😂

[@johnmcgarvie4061]

Should have saved some of the beer for the clean up crews.

Hope the beer doesn't get in the river there will be a bunch of drunk fish.

[@tomp8871]

Ya, cuz we all know drunk fish don't bite no hooks

[@sammijodumpsterdiver4454]

Omg. That's my home town.

[@scotthayes4135]

Doesn't look like the liquor stores will be getting their shipments of Bud Light.

[@MikeG42]

Nice video. That's alot of crushed boxcars and too bad about the beer but there will always be more.

[@onemannews]

Also was carrying many brand new gmc trucks

Are you related to Road Guy Rob?

[@just_observing1]

Count from 1900 to 2020 on derailments then count from 2020 to present and see what you get. Bet you see a huge magic trick

[@doughesson]

Yeah,the State Alcohol Control Board sent ONE agent to keep track of the beer. What was he going to do if the entire county had turned out to take the beer? Arrest everybody?

[@sd70acerightthere10]

that train is the MEGAS, Its a Beer train.

[@FirstnameLastname-tp4zw]

[@ShawnCalay]

FJB couldn't make a road trip from the White House to here with out crapping his pants in the first 21 miles....so what does he have to do with it?

[@StephieMarie80]

Can everyone who posts/writes about this please do your research or at least pay attention to the town signs and spell Emmet correctly? Those who live here would really appreciate that at least.

Move out of the way with your face. The video is about a train, not you.
