Don’t worry - norfolk southern, the company responsible, gave the town a whopping $25k to help out. Five dollars for everyone! https://finance.yahoo.com/news/n

  Whoever did that should hide. It's so insulting that it must be dangerous.

    This is after they bought ten billion dollars of their own stocks last year. It’s unbelievable. They really couldn’t shell out a bit more, at least just for good PR? https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/09/19/while-fighting-workers-railroads-made-over-10-billion-stock-buybacks https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/09/19/while-fighting-...

      Honestly suspect some middle manager approved it and that's the highest they can go "immediately without approval" because $25k sounds like what you'd normally allocate for a single personal injury (someone getting hit on the head by a crossing guard or whatnot) and they didn't think what it would look like, nor pause to run it up the chain.
