A car collided with the gas tanker, causing a fire and then an explosion of about eighty-five hundred gallons of gas.
Amazingly no one was injured in the incident.
It happened on McCarter Highway, right next to Amtrak train lines.
Damage to signals, wires, and tracks was being repaired as quickly as possible.
Service delays are to be expected throughout the rest of Thursday, but Amtrak hopes to have everything back to normal for Friday.
An investigation of the crash is underway.
