Fire? Gee, golly I bet there are fires all across the nation. How about adding some sort of context to the subject line.

CHP had a BOL out for a white dually pulling a trailer with flat tires that may have possibly sparked it. Not much more than that. Thanks for the link.

At around 3:26 pm a vehicle can be seen doing down Woodford-Tehachapi Rd.  At 3:27:44 the first whisps of smoke are visible, and continue to grow to the right in the cam for a few moinutes.  At 3:59:50 a fire plane drops some retardant. As of 7:36, fire crews are still mopping up.

Well that turned out much better than I5 south of Portland OR did as a truck driver left his load burning along side the road there. Was full of small propane bottles and shut down the freeway due to ruined pavement. The tractor and driver are in the wind so far.

Facts do not stop the master babbler from posting innuendo and false information.

So this one is out, inactive and I can't find it on the CalFire incidents webpage, here's what watchduty has to say, note it was next to the road, not really near the RR:

btw they found the propane truck driver, check today's news.
