Norfolk Southern Railroad Emergency Response Planning Guide
4.4 Norfolk Southern Response Resources In the case of most derailments or spills, local responders do not have the equipment or expertise to handle large spill cleanup or railroad re-railing operations. Norfolk Southern recognizes its role in providing this specialized expertise and equipment to mitigate an incident. Norfolk Southern maintains standing contracts and agreements with various suppliers of these services.

The plan didn't come together, despite their community concerns.

I remember New Orleans and the chocolate mayor had a plan for evacuation in the event of a hurricane.

Plans are fine.....but it's the execution that matters.

Nice find! The guide also emphasizes communication. Another case of planning versus execution failure.
