Everyone is okay in Indianapolis where a train slammed into a big-rig stalled with its trailer across some railroad tracks yesterday.
An off-duty firefighter had stopped to help the truck driver and had his phone capturing video just at the moment of impact.
The semi driver was not hurt because his cab was not on the tracks. But the trailer was carrying barrels of finely powdered starch which was released on impact and ignited into a fireball.
Indianapolis fire crews quickly doused the flames but debris, including many barrels of starch, was scattered for several feet around and required hours to clean up.
