Vowing that Norfolk Southern “will be working tirelessly every day to get East Palestine back on its feet as soon as possible,” company CEO Alan Shaw visited the eastern Ohio village where a Norfolk Southern train derailed on Feb. 3, sending toxic chemicals into the air and onto the ground.

“I am here to support the community,” Shaw said in a Feb. 17 statement. “We know we will be judged by our actions, and we are taking this accountability and responsibility very seriously.”
