A second train derailment in Ohio Saturday has lawmakers calling for additional freight safety rules at a time when the industry is already on the defensive following last month's disastrous toxic chemical derailment.
“I am very concerned about the power of the railroads to beat back safety regulations,” Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, said on ABC’s “This Week”.

So just like last time?
No, not just like the last time!
What last time?
Wow wtf 😳
What?, again?, this can’t be true!
This is all planned nothin happens on accident
Train derailment isn’t anything new. They should be fewer & fewer. But then, how safe can one be if the workers are overworked?
@Sun Shine he knows. He doesn’t care
I want someone to say the famous words
Rolling back regulations was a super smart move. 😳
There was no regulation rollback nor was any of this due to breaking rules. Saying otherwise demonstrates castration worthy incompetence.
Welcome to Donald trump’s America. 😏

The terrorism task force needs to look into this too many coincidences and derailment.
Or maybe your parents need to look into your education. Derails happen all the time. This is only in the news because some reporters need to be fired for incompetence.
These people need to put their act together and fix this before it’s too late…
So? Derails happen. We just bring in a welding crew to scrap the damages cars.
Who, the handicrafts, is clear, that the lines were demolished in advance ..
