There is growing concern about the fate of farmers and those living in a wide swath exposed to the chemical fallout of the fire and contaminated water sources following the Palestine, Ohio train derailment. How serious will the damage be to future crops from that land, and long-term health consequences of chemical exposure from air, water, and direct contact with contaminated materials now a part of the environment for those living under that cloud?

A second Norfolk Southern train carrying toxic chemicals has derailed in Detroit, weeks after the dangerous derailment in Palestine, Ohio, where authorities ordered the chemicals to be ignited on-site, resulting in a toxic cloud spreading poison widely. Apparently, there have been over 1000 train derailments annually in the U.S. for decades. Is there a sinister reason for the rail system to have so many failures?
