After another Norfolk Southern Corp. (NSC) train derailed in Springfield, Ohio, over the weekend, authorities have launched an investigation.

This is the third train derailment on a line owned by NSC after the toxic Feb. 3 incident in East Palestine, Ohio—one of the worst environmental disasters in recent memory.
