CSX screw up causes derailment

Maybe the two threads can be combined?

Lessons Learned at East Palestine? (CSX Wreck in Georgia)

With the railroads, most now have an emergency phone number posted somewhere at each grade crossing. The same post includes a unique crossing number, and the railroad will then know the exact location, without any need for GPS tracking. Often the 911 operators and first responders can be confused when having to deal with rail rather than road. That can delay getting the needed information to the (right) railroad.
