Final narrative
A train operator was transporting carts of molten iron from the blast furnace to oxygen furnaces. He was working to couple four carts to two other carts while going around a slight curve on the track. A hard coupling event occurred causing molten iron to splash out of the carts and onto the employee. The employee sustained first-degree burns to the face and knees.
