Large Explosion Near Oxford



How much do they hold? Reason I ask is I was at a derailment of tank cars that exploded and it wasn’t that big of a fire ball

Edit: it was probably a contained explosion/fire ball. The one I attended was 1.5m litres of crude oil that was spilling, so a wider explosion

Varies a lot I think. I’ve seen digester tanks from 50m3 to 8000m3, with the gas contained within a limited section of the roof space
 
I live about 3 miles from the site of the explosion and I didn't hear or see a thing.

Left to play footy 10 minutes after it happened completely oblivious.
A friend from down South mentioned a thunder and lightening storm this afternoon.
There was thunder and lightening at about 7pm like.
