Train wreck evacuees can return home LIVINGSTON, La. (AP) - Hundreds of people ventured back home Tuesday for the first time ip two weeks, mistrustful of assurances that there would be no long-term contamination from a train fire that*6ent clouds of toxic smoke over the town ‘ I'm not so much worried about myself and my husband, but what about my kids and our grandchildren?” said Pauline Buffy, who was concerned about long-lasting chemical contamination "I don’t think they ve really given us the assurance we wanted,” she said Authorities warned residents not to eat vegetables from their gardens or food that was left on shelves or in refrigerators when the town’s 2,700 residents were evacuated Sept 28 But at two quickly called town meetings, health officials said they did not expect long-term complications "We don't think you will have any problems,” said state health officer Dr Sarah Braud “If we did, we wouldn’t have let you back in. ” Some residents — those who live in 20 homes very close to where 43 cars in a 1Q1-car Illin ois Central-Gulf States freight train derailed — were not al lowed to return Those homes were destroyed or badly damaged and now are in a roped-off area, close to the charred wrecks of the over turned rail cars where clean-up crews were still at work Away from that area, homes seemed to have suffered little damage other than broken win dows Trees and other plants still have their leaves The fire began with a roar, burned in brilliant colors and produced heavy black smoke It took days to extinguish because of the highly flammable chemicals carried in the de railed train cars Gov Dave Treen signaled an end to Louisiana's worst rail road disaster Monday, making the long-awaited decision al lowing residents to return after hazardous waste experts told him the dangerous chemical explosions were over State police set up check points dutside the rural town and began allowing residents in at about 8 a m Those returning were handed a one-page sheet of "health tips " It suggested that residents vacuum their houses, wash all cooking utensils, change air conditioner filters and wash clothes and bedding Although a spot check of vegetables from local gardens had shown no sign of contamination, it said those vegetables should be dis carded Willie Spinks, who lived in a rented house about 2H blocks from the derailment site, said his family is moving out.
