A trial will determine how much Norfolk Southern, GATX and OxyVinyls will pay toward a $600 million settlement related to the Feb. 3, 2023, Norfolk Southern Railway toxic derailment in East Palestine, Ohio.
Norfolk Southern argues that both companies share partial responsibility for the incident. According to reports, the Atlanta-based railroad has already spent over $1 billion on cleanup efforts.
Although the trial will clarify who pays the settlement, it will not affect the amount East Palestine residents receive.
