Last month’s toxic Ohio train derailment in East Palestine was the focus of a hearing Wednesday before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation about improving rail safety.

“The people of East Palestine have told me that they want their community back," Gov. Mike DeWine said as he appeared at the committee hearing remotely from the East Palestine High School library. "They want things to go back to the way they were before the train wreck. Members of the committee, Norfolk Southern has an obligation to restore this community. It was their train, their tracks, their accident. They’re responsible for this tragedy.”

"My appreciation for the first responders was clearly shown by our blowing up the train after you all put it out".

I've been on trains in Kansas city, that were inspected in less than 15 minutes.. and they were over 1.5 miles long... So, they basically were approved by Carmen who were threatened by upper management to get it out of the yard as quickly as possible...

The engines the RR companies buy are voided of their guarantee the first day they are used. Because they exceed the manufacturing companies limits on the weight they pull... The RR companies are basically building trains that exceed the recommended amount of the manufacturers design... ..
