Federal investigators have released their findings about a Yakima derailment - unstaffed train with no handbrakes set backs down a track and hits the end of the line. That last four cars - double hulled and filled with propane - came off the tracks and thankfully did not break open. To add embarrassment to the slow-moving derailment, the Sherriff's Office had to be evacuated after the accident because of its proximity to the cars.
I'm thankful that nobody was hurt!
