Another Norfolk Southern train derailed in Ohio
Another Norfolk Southern train derailed in OhioClark County officials held a press conference that detailed the contents of the train cars, but assured that there was no risk to public health.
After analysis, four tankers were identified with non-hazardous materials. Two tankers contained residual amounts of diesel exhaust fluid, while the other two contained residual amounts of polyacrylamide water solution.
There were no spillages detected and officials claimed that there were no risks to public health, although the site remained “active.”
Officials also claimed the drinking water near the site of the derailment was safe to consume.
