I was passing the Hicksville Yard and noticed some yellow and green tank cars. It turned out to be the CSX Safety Training Train. There are 3 tank cars and a box car. The box car has signage mentioning the Fire Fighters Education & Training Foundation and the CSX Hazardous Material Systems. My guess is it is there to train our local fire fighters how to respond to a rr accident involving hazardous materials.
