Correction: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that the loose cars were found in the East Palestine, Ohio, train derailment. The story has been updated to show that Norfolk Southern was referring to the derailment in Springfield, Ohio. Norfolk Southern — the railway company whose train derailed last month in East Palestine, Ohio, contaminating the surrounding area with toxic chemicals — announced Thursday night that it had determined that some of its railcars involved in a different derailment had loose wheels.
