Section title here essentially sums it up. The glaring lack of national media coverage and government silence in the week following the disaster has become quite a talking point, and could use a subsection in the Impacts and Reactions section. TSwanyIRL ( talk) 02:42, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
Don't blame me, I voted for Tim Ryan (sent his campaign money, too). Bet he wouldn't have waited over a week to talk about this from his Senate seat. –

The national media are covering this way more than they're following the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage. I just skimmed that article for the first time to get an overview on that that I didn't have before now. – wbm1058 ( talk) 19:23, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
There should be an additional section added about the refusal of the media to cover the on-going news blackout in Palestine. All of the MSM reporters are focused on reporting on the train derailment and the pollution instead of talking about how they are refusing to cover the train derailment.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.141.232.152 ( talk) 10:18, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
There are an average of 1,700 train derailments in the US per year. Why does this one have a wikipedia page and others don't? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.94.36.175 ( talk) 11:43, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
I'm a person that tends, probably to my detriment, to be somewhat cavalier about chemicals, because I deal with them daily. However, with the stuff involved here, I would be getting myself and my family very far away from this. 24.51.192.49 ( talk) 10:35, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
Local weather patterns key! 2600:1009:B018:FDB0:5D46:25D1:8CF2:EF09 ( talk) 03:16, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
The initial vote to move the page to a new name failed, but consensus seemed neutral at best about the current name. What do you think would be a more fitting name for the page, before somebody starts the next vote/discussion? TSwanyIRL ( talk) 00:55, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
This article definitely needs to be renamed. At this point this is an embarrassment. ɱ (talk) 03:04, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
[Three-in-one topic so I can avoid creating three separate sections]
The first is a senate bill introduced March 1. The text available on the senate cosponsors' webpages has no number, and the numbered bill at congress.gov has no text (yet), so I assume that they're the same thing.
The second: " NTSB Examining Rail Car Component in East Palestine Derailment", regarding housing covers.
Third, " Rep. Kelly calls on E.P.A. to expand one-mile radius around East Palestine, Ohio train derailment site to help Western Pennsylvanians" This hasn't actually happened yet, so it probably shouldn't go in the article right now, but it's worth watching. Mapsax ( talk) 03:28, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
An editor, User:FFM784, deleted reference to the 1992 Nemadji River train derailment. To answer their question, yes, there are reasons that we need another link to another accident in "See also." 1) The derailment triggered the largest mass evacuation in the US from a transportation accident and the largest evacuation anywhere in the Midwest. 2) The accident was followed in less than three years by a settlement in which the Burlington Northern RR agreed to hundreds of thousands of dollars to investigation of the type of rail derailment of the sort in the Nemadji River derailment. Furthermore, the BN committed to purchase ultrasonic rail inspection cars.
In sum, the issues that arise in the cross-referenced article related directly to concerns that arise in the East Palestine derailment: derailment, technology to detect derailments, a railroad's nominal commitment to tackle derailment issue and the evacuation of thousands.
