[0:00] Thankful [music] after Katrina tonight
[0:02] on News Channel 5 at 10.
[0:07] >> Good evening, I'm Bob Schiffer. It's not
[0:09] an official holiday, but maybe it should
[0:11] be because for millions, the day before
[0:13] Thanksgiving has become Getaway Day. And
[0:16] so far, the getaway is going well. We'll
[0:19] start there tonight, then we'll cover
[0:21] these stories.
[0:22] >> I'm Kimberly Doer with a look at the war
[0:24] on video and the legend of the Baghdad
[0:27] sniper. It's a story of greed, power,
[0:30] and money, and it's shaking up
[0:31] Washington. I'm Gloria Borgger.
[0:34] >> How sweet it isn't. I'm Kelly Kova with
[0:37] the way Hurricane Katrina is affecting
[0:39] sugar prices. I'm Cynthia Bowers in
[0:41] Kalamazoo, where mysterious benefactors
[0:44] are making an extraordinary promise.
[0:48] [music]
[0:50] >> This is the CBS Evening News with
[0:53] [music] Bob Schiffer. This is of course
[0:56] the beginning of the heaviest travel
[0:58] weekend of the year and for the most
[1:00] part it has been going fairly well
[1:02] across the country. But in Chicago late
[1:04] today there has been a serious crash
[1:07] involving a commuter train and at least
[1:10] 10 vehicles. At least one of the
[1:12] vehicles burst into flame. There is no
[1:15] word yet on casualties. We're seeing
[1:17] here some of the first pictures that are
[1:19] coming in by helicopter. Uh details are
[1:22] very scarce uh at this point, but
[1:25] clearly there was a fire here and as we
[1:27] say at least 10 vehicles, perhaps as
[1:30] many as 17 burst into flame. We'll keep
[1:33] you uh informed as more details become
[1:36] available on this story. In other parts
[1:38] of the country, traffic has not been as
[1:40] bad as some had predicted.
