Santa is also a train and white Explorer. So, report he said over here on St. Charles that they saw a white Explorer. Right, and Union Pacific is calling in saying they hit another vehicle, 601 Delano. It has hazmat cargo on the train. Don't know about that one.

Unit track 5. The freight train is at St. Charles and 45 and not on Delano? Union Pacific says it's on Delano. They're going Samson.
