  Goddamn it. We've heard for over a year now about how the workers have barely any time off, can't take off for sick leave and are working insane shifts.
  This was the inevitable result.
context: It's been burning for around 12 hours and in this morning's 6:30 update the authorities stated they know that there are hazardous chemicals in the train; however, they don't know which are burning. They are putting up ground monitors to know how toxic the smoke is >
  
  No official word from Norfolk Southern but I live a few minutes away from the crash and the firefighters are telling people it is vinyl chloride. 
  Last I heard is that they told the firefighters to stand down and let it burn due to health and safety risks. >
  
  So is it a "feathery plume", a "black billowing cloud", or a full-blown "airborne toxic event"? >
  
  The radio said it’s a feathery plume, don’t worry finish your dinner. >
  
  It's like a shapeless, growing thing. A dark, black breathing thing of smoke. >
  
  I found this article very confusing until I realized "East Palestine" is a town in Ohio.
