NEW: Residents of Wyandotte, Oklahoma are cleaning up after a massive train derailment Sunday night. No injuries are reported.
Just before 8:00 p.m., a train was going through town at a high rate of speed according to an eyewitness, appeared to come apart, throwing train cars into the yard of a nearby house.
“A train car looked like it decoupled from the front part of the train and shot straight up into the air,” said Curtis George, an eyewitness. “The front of the train just kept going. I don’t think they even know it came apart.”
The crossing was near a school and cut off a portion of Main Street for travel.
George said the train came off the tracks in his direction, and while it was a harrowing event, he said it was “the coolest thing he has ever seen.”
