Norfolk Southern to pay $600 million over Ohio derailment

“Norfolk Southern Corporation announced Tuesday that it has reached a $600 million agreement in principle to resolve a consolidated class action lawsuit relating to the East Palestine derailment. If approved by the court, the agreement will resolve all class action claims within a 20-mile radius from the derailment and, for those residents who choose to participate, personal injury claims within a 10-mile radius from the derailment,” says a press release from Norfolk Southern.

“This is another promise kept by Norfolk Southern to make it right for the people of East Palestine and the surrounding communities. In March 2023, the company made commitments to address three long-term concerns of residents: drinking water, home values, and healthcare. Already, the company has announced programs for drinking water and home value assurance. The company is going further through this comprehensive settlement—providing additional, significant monetary relief to individuals, including for healthcare, and to help qualifying local businesses continue to rebuild and grow,” and blah blah blah with a bunch of other PR bullshit before they get to “This agreement does not include or constitute any admission of liability, wrongdoing, or fault,” lol.

Thus ends the “white genocide” crisis that was Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg’s fault but former President Trump selflessly donated a few hundred bucks worth of McDonald’s food to help mitigate.
