There’s ‘having a bad month’.
Then, there’s having a ‘Norfolk Southern bad month’.
I’m starting to wonder if this doesn’t have something to do with that so called union settlement
Derailed suddenly.
“Derailed suddenly.”

And unexpectedly!
Fear not FIB is on the case /s
Sigh. There is certainly that as well, in large doses.
When I was young and teenage, we lived near railroad tracks. My friends and I would get close to the trains as they went by. Wave at the Engineers ask them to blow their horns. And they usually did. A derailment anywhere made the newspapers. Based upon that I would say that 50 plus years ago derailments were VERY rare. Not at all like today.
The rail unions threatened a strike over safety conditions.
And yes, Biden and the rest forced a resolution on them. Apparently they didn’t address the safety issues.
Biden/Dims have no concern for the safety for their union employees, only to get to a quick resolution to get the issue off the headlines.
The question is: Was the diesel engine fully vaccinated and boosted?”
The train operators maintain the tracks, not the government
