WOOD COUNTY ARES BULLETIN NR 18.12       DATE: March 25, 2018
SUBJECT: WHAT'S ON THAT TRAIN?

Have you ever stood beside a railroad tracks and watched the trains go by?  Have you ever thought about what is in those cars that are on the train?  Some day when you haven't got anything to do, go to your nearest railroad tracks and write down the names and hazmat number of the materials you see printed on the side. After writing them down, go to the Internet and look up the materials that you are unsure of, and see what kind of hazard they could be.  Just a thought.
