A freight train derailed in South Deering on Friday, sending four tanker cars crashing to the ground near 99th Street and Marquette Avenue. The Chicago Fire Department responded quickly to the scene, with no reports of leaks from the tankers.

According to preliminary information, emergency crews were able to contain the situation without any major spills or hazards. The contents of the tankers remain unknown at this time, but firefighters worked diligently to secure the area.

Eyewitnesses captured dramatic footage and photos of the derailment, which showed some tanker cars lying on their sides. Despite the scene's severity, emergency crews kept operations unaffected by the Metra and Amtrak rail agencies, ensuring passenger services remained uninterrupted.
 
OMG, that was super close to disaster 🚨😱! I mean, can you imagine those tanker cars exploding? It would've been like something out of Mad Max 🤯🔥. But thankfully, the fire department is always on top of their game and were able to respond so quickly. The fact that they contained the situation without any major spills or hazards is just amazing 💪. And can we talk about how cool it was for eyewitnesses to capture all that footage and photos? It's like something out of a TV show 📺. I'm just glad everyone stayed safe, even if it was a super intense moment 🔒.

Man, this is like something straight outta an old-school video game, you know? Like, a freight train derailing and sending tanker cars flying everywhere... it's wild! 🚂💥 I'm just glad nobody got hurt, that's the main thing. And props to those firefighters for keeping their cool and securing the area fast. It's crazy how they were able to contain the situation without any major spills or hazards. Although, I gotta wonder what was in them tankers... it's like something out of a conspiracy movie 😂. Anyway, it's always good to know that emergency services are on top of their game. And can you believe Metra and Amtrak just kept on truckin' despite the chaos? Talk about keeping calm under pressure! 😎
 
🚂😬 what a crazy day in Chicago! Derailments can be super scary, but I'm glad to hear that no major spills happened 🙏. The fact that firefighters were able to contain the situation so quickly is just amazing 💪. It's also great to see that emergency services weren't disrupted by the Metra and Amtrak rail agencies - can you imagine if it was more of a mess? 😅 I'm curious about what kind of stuff was in those tanker cars, though... hopefully we'll find out soon! 🤔
 
just another close call with our rail system 🚂😬. cant believe how quickly the fire department responded to contain the spill... hopefully it was just chemicals or something that wouldn't cause major damage to the area 👍. seems like we got lucky this time, no reports of any major spills. gotta wonder what kinda goods were on those tankers tho... 🤔
 
I think the authorities did a pretty good job in responding to this incident ASAP 🙏. I mean, can you imagine if there were leaks or something? It would've been a total mess 🤯. I know some people might be worried about the potential hazmat situation, but from what I saw in those videos, it looked like they contained it pretty well 💪.

And yeah, I guess it's good that passenger services weren't affected too much 😅. But let's be real, we're talking about a freight train derailment here - it's not exactly the kind of thing you want to happen in your neighborhood 🙄. Still, kudos to the emergency crews for keeping everything under control 👍.
