Video of South Incident Command showing train cars off the track and rolled down the embankment of the Shermer Road railroad viaduct.

Two freight trains belonging to Canadian Pacific Railway struck each other just after 3:00 p.m. No injuries were reported, however some power lines were damaged and the railroad bridge over Shermer Road was damaged.

Video of North Incident Command (location of main MABAS Division 3 Command Center) showing train car pileup near Shermer Road south of Willow Road.

Video of five locomotives of northbound train idling just south of Techny Road.

The last video of idling locomotives is mostly for train buffs and people who are interested in the locomotives that were pulling the northbound train that derailed Sunday in Northbrook and Glenview. The powerful sound of the idling locomotives will please train buffs, but for others be warned … The Cardinal doesn’t want to be accused of wasting your time with a boring video.

Between 2:55 and 3:24 time markers, you can see the markings of one of the locomotives — Iowa Chicago & Eastern. Also, at about 1:51 you can see a small sprite-like flash at the top of one of the locomotives. If anyone wants to comment on what that is, please do.

Could that be a tanker of Jim Beam, just behind the locomotives shown at the beginning of the video? Let The Cardinal know.

Extra Alarm HazMat Response for Major Train Derailment Near Willow and Shermer | The Cardinal Says:
November 2nd, 2009 at 6:10 pm
[...] Two freight trains were involved in a major train derailment near Shermer and Willow Road just after 3:00 p.m. Sunday. The derailment involved up to 20 train cars and was also near Glenview to the south. No hazardous materials were known to be leaking, but Northbrook Fire Department and Glenview Fire Department were involved in an extra-alarm HazMat level situation at the beginning of the incident. Several nearby fire departments assisted Northbrook and Glenview for mutual aid. The extra alarm Hazmat was requested about 3:35 p.m. Most mutual aid departments, including Prospect Heights, Skokie, Wheeling, Glencoe and others were returned after determining that the train cars were carrying grain and clay. There was a report that there was one tank car of Jim Beam, but that was not confirmed. VIDEO from The Cardinal … See Video: Glenview-Northbrook Train Derailment Video … [...]
