🚂 NSC 0.00 is in trouble

norfolk southern, a rail transportation giant, was operating trains carrying hazardous materials, and ran off the tracks in ohio

• per epa, at least 20 of the derailed cars were carrying toxic materials, which made way into storm drains and killed ~3.5k fish

• to avoid explosion, first responders also burned five cars’ worth of chemical vinyl chloride

🤕 the real damages

• residents and communities are struggling to recover from the derailment

• businesses that are forced to close due to the evacuation

• air and water exposure for anyone in the broader region

  • long term exposure can potentially bring about a rare form of liver cancer

😔 norfolk says…

• it commits to giving away 100+ air purifiers and one-time $1,000 payments to residents who had to evacuate

• potentially an upcoming "casualty charge" of ~$40m

  • which is only 1.7% of norfolk southern’s 2022 profits…
