It is _super_ weird how little attention this derailment seems to be attracting.

I’ve seen a handful of national media outlets cover it without paying any particular attention. What level of attention should this story be getting?

Aren't there several of these situations ongoing at any given time? It has happened twice near some aunts of mine. Train derailments leaking chemicals do not seem that rare.

The situation is really, really bad, and in a better world, might become the foundational precedent to new laws on letting corporations regulate themselves.
