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.
Alt we are going to do is go
back and get our pictures.''
