Decaying empire
After a freight train carrying hazardous chemicals derailed in East Palestine, Ohio a year ago, the rail industry pledged to work to become safer, and members of Congress vowed to prevent similar disasters. No bill was passed and accidents went up.
Since Ohio Train Derailment, Accidents Have Gone Up, Not Down
The total number of accidents for the top five freight railroads increased, and Congress still hasn’t passed legislation to prevent similar disasters.
