Original Note:
According to officials, the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio was likely caused by an overheated wheel bearing that ultimately failed. There is no evidence that suggests the brakes were in poor condition or a factor in the derailment. https://www.ntsb.gov/news/press-releases/Pages/NR20230214.aspx
