Watch: Another Norfolk Southern Cargo Train Derails in Ohio

Elvis Dunderhoff March 5, 2023

The media and the government keep saying that trains derail in massive destructive crashes all the time and that this is perfectly normal.

It’s possible that this is a claim in the vein of “young people have always had heart attacks.” However, if it’s true, then it just goes to show that American infrastructure is in a state of utter decay, below the level of any third world country, even while the government claims we’re “the best country ever.”

From what we’ve gathered, both are true: trains do derail regularly because of the state of American infrastructure, but these derailments are not, on average, anywhere near as bad as what we’ve been seeing recently.

A Norfolk Southern cargo train derailed near Springfield, Ohio in the US on Saturday. The incident comes a month after another train operated by the same company came off the tracks in East Palestine, Ohio, causing a major toxic spill.

This time there were no hazardous materials on the train, Norfolk Southern noted in a statement. “Our teams are en route to the site to begin cleanup operations,” the company said. There were no deaths or injuries as a result of the incident, it added.

Residents within 300 meters (1,000 feet) of the crash site have been told to shelter in place “out of an abundance of caution,” the local emergency management agency said.

Between 20 and 30 cars out of 212 on the train derailed at around 5 pm by State Route 41, the Springfield News-Sun reported, citing on-site emergency officials.

Electricity was reportedly out in parts of Springfield as power lines were damaged in the crash.

Springfield is a town of around 60,000, located in Clark County some 74km (46 miles) west of Ohio’s state capital, Columbus.

A witness, whose car was standing at a railway crossing, was able to film the derailment. “I was right there and I was playing on my phone and then I heard a loud bang… When I heard the bang, there was all kinds of debris and metal shoot out from under the cars and that’s when I started recording and you could see them start jumping off the tracks,” he recalled.

Many right-wingers are claiming that train derailments are a conspiracy. This is difficult to believe and impossible to prove, but it is certainly possible.

In general, there is a growing strain on the right that claims everything is a conspiracy without necessarily feeling the need to explain the purpose of the conspiracy. However, when new weird events start happening and there is no explanation, and they are statistically very unlikely to occur, you do need to keep an open mind.
