Residents break out in rash after Ohio train derailment

A long, long time ago, in this galaxy right here, freight trains had cabooses — them little, red houses on wheels at the very END of the train. And cabooses had little observation cupolas on top with windows, and a guy would sit up there and watch the train for derailments and hot boxes and fires and so forth. Anything suspicious-looking, and they’d stop the train and determine what was wrong.’
Now, trains have no cabooses. They have End-Of-Train Devices (a small box) put on the last coupler in the consist, with a brake line pressure monitor, and a flashing light.
I guess cabooses were maybe better.
Actions speak louder than words.
This tells me they KNOW there’s a big problem.
This OH case is a Biden scandal too.
I guess they don’t trust Biden’s EPA either.
I’m marveling at the contrast in coverage between this and something like the Deepwater Horizon [BP] incident. That was going to ruin water, beaches, wildlife, ... for generations. Here ... crickets.
