A subsequent inspection determined that 32 DOT-117J100-W tank cars had derailed near the Bloomfield Road public crossing at Mile 43.66, destroying about 300 feet of track. Thirty of the derailed cars released about 1.75 million L of crude oil. A fire ensued. Approximately 85 residents of Guernsey were evacuated, and Highway 16 was closed. There were no injuries"--Summary, page 5.
