Don't mean to quibble, Cap, but I was just posting the image that "t123Ken" referenced in his post that started this thread. In it, he says it's from 1/1/1945. I have no idea if that's correct, if you are, or if both of you are wrong. Just trying to help since I knew how to save & post it. ;)

All aboard!!

Here 'tis:

Did you see the video with the truck driver (I guess it was the driver) climbing in and out of the truck cab while the fuel was gushing out of the tank right behind him? I don't know what the fuel was . . . I've seen gasoline and diesel. Of course diesel is much less likely to flash . . . but...

From the Nassau County Fire Service Academy: "At approximately 11:00 AM this morning, in Lawrence Cedarhurst Fire District on Rockaway Tpke, there was an auto accident leading to an overturned tanker truck leaking. Over 10 fire departments from Nassau county, as well as units from the FDNY...

Ya think??

The Inwood FD also responded. I wouldn't be surprised if the Lawrence/Cedarhurst department did too, but I have no information on that. Also, the US Coast Guard was notified of a gasoline spill into a coastal waterway, but I have no idea of their response, if any. From lifirebuff on Instagram:

This is kind of an interesting situation. In Queens, the street in question is Rockaway Boulevard. But as soon as you cross into Nassau County, it becomes Rockaway Turnpike. Also, from about 248 Street to the water (by the IHOP in the map), the street is the dividing line between Queens and...
