Fire destroys locomotive at ADM plant in Cedar Rapids

September 10, 2019 By O. Kay Henderson

A diesel locomotive caught fire in Cedar Rapids late Monday afternoon.

The fire happened at what’s called the “dry mill” owned by Archer Daniels Midland, or ADM. The Cedar Rapids Fire Department says it had to use 1,000 gallons of water and foam to put out the fire.

Fire investigators estimate the damage to the train was one million dollars. The cause of the fire is not yet known.
