Answer 2

Tank Car Failure and Release of Poisonous and Corrosive Vapors Involving Tank Car UTLX 92329 at the Gaylord Chemical Corporation Plant in Bogalusa, Louisiana on October 23, 1995
Cause : Lack of adequate procedures on the part of Gaylord Chemical Corp. and Vicksburg Chemical Co. to prevent or detect the contamination of nitrogen tetroxide with water, resulting in the formation of an extremely corrosive product and the subsequent failure of the tank car. Contributing to the severity of the accident were the Gaylord Chemical Corp.'s inadequate procedures for emergency transfer of contaminated cargo from the tank car.
