Simply put no answers, no accountability and we sent the operator to Michigan to derail another train. A great government subsidiary.

This should be the top story on every news outlet. Get these people help.

Set up an event for the execs from Norfolk Southern and EPA officials to have a water chugging contest. See who can drink the most in a 48 hour time period. Then have a sign up for class action lawsuits.

They are not ever gonna get any answers I actually met a person who actually worked at taking care of train derailments and he said to me and I quote they cover up a lot of things that the people don't know about while they're cleaning up and facing it got so bad that he couldn't handle what they were doing and he quit!
