911 calls from Casselton train derailment show crew member first reported his train carried ethanol http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1389301304

Another railroad worker shortly after the accident told dispatchers he was worried the derailed cars could explode, and sought permission to decouple burning cars to prevent a chain reaction.
