The cleanup efforts are now underway at the site of the train collision and derailment that happened yesterday in Northwest Indiana. I just visited the crash location today, and I managed to take a few pictures of the scene for you all.
Attached below is one of the images I captured. It shows the aftermath of the incident, where sections of the tracks have been cleared, and heavy machinery is moving in to remove the containers and damaged rail cars from the crash site. This particular photo was taken by me, Tim Olk.

Here’s another image I took today. As part of the recovery process, the company responsible is using a nearby private farm to stage their equipment and the damaged rail cars before they can be removed or demolished. This logistical effort is crucial to ensuring the area is cleaned up efficiently.

This next picture really captures the scale of the incident. You can see a rail car behind an engine that caught fire during the crash. Workers are already on-site, preparing to clear the debris and start rebuilding the tracks. This photo also gives a sense of the immediate response required following such accidents.

I’ve put together a much larger gallery with additional photos here [link]. There's so much detail in these images that really helps convey the magnitude of the situation and the hard work being done to restore the area.
If you’re interested in seeing more of what’s happening at the site, make sure to check out the full gallery. It provides a closer look at both the devastation caused by the derailment and the progress being made toward resolving it.
