A train carrying crude oil from the Bakken region of North Dakota has derailed in northern Illinois, causing a massive fire. The blaze was so intense the firefighters had to retreat to let the fire burn out on its own. The incident follows two previous oil train derailments last month which happened within days of each other in Ontario, Canada, and West Virginia.
