Ohio train derailment most likely caused by an overheated wheel bearing, a preliminary NTSB report reveals

The derailment of a train carrying dangerous chemicals in Ohio can be traced to an overheated wheel bearing that was 253 degrees hotter than ambient temperatures, a preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board revealed Thursday. The report also described why authorities opted for a controlled burn of one chemical, vinyl chloride, days after the derailment.


Do something positive.
