The US Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has offered a mixed review of Norfolk Southern's safety culture following a derailment in Ohio. While the FRA found frequent compliance with minimum safety standards, they also identified issues with track maintenance, inspection, repair practices, and hours of service regulations. Despite this, the FRA acknowledged positive changes and renewed commitment shown by Norfolk Southern's leadership to improve safety.
