Tragic reports are speaking about a train carrying 350 passengers bursting into flames.
Shocking images were captured at the moment when the train exploded, sparking calls for a massive evacuation.
The train was said to be heading to Delaware when the incident arose and featured a six car SEPTA train when the flames tore through the carriage near the Crum Lynne in Pennsylvania.
The incident arose during the evening hours and pictures from the incident showed thick grey plumes of smoke billowing from the train at the time.
This is when it lit up the sky with giant orange flames within and one passenger explained how she knew about the horror about 15 minutes into the journey.
She further mentioned how the sight and smell of smoke instilled a lot of fear among passengers. ‘We had to get up and relocate quickly. This is how bad things were starting to get- she shared.
‘As many people were walking nearby, they spoke about the train being on fire. This led to further cry for help and panic’- the witness shared.
Eventually, the conductors were left with no choice but to open the doors fast, and tell passengers to disembark, making sure everyone reached safety on the platform in time. So far, no injuries have been reported and the cause is under investigation.
