Updated text at article link:

"Although officials initially reported that the train spilled roughly 200 gallons of fuel over a 23-mile stretch from Sacramento to Dixon, by Thursday those numbers had risen to 900 gallons over a 37-mile distance starting in Roseville, UP spokeswoman Susan Stevens told The Davis Enterprise."

That is one gallon per 217' when the train is at average speed - more when it is going slow, or at least six gallons the length of the Davis station platform - probably twice that as the train was traveling slowly through Davis.
