Canadian manufacturer National Steel Car said a review has shown that rail cars did not have loose wheels as initially suspected after a March derailment involving a Norfolk Southern train in Springfield, Ohio
But in a statement Monday, National Steel Car said that the order had been rescinded after company data showed all the wheels on the cars had been mounted properly and that laser scans revealed that movement of the wheels on cars involved in the derailment was caused by “an enormous impact.”
“The report of loose wheels was misleading,” said Gregory J. Aziz, the chief executive of National Steel Car. The railroad association confirmed that the advisory had been canceled. It said the group had acted based on the information available at the time and stood by its actions.National Steel Car pointed to aissued by the Federal Railroad Administration that urged operators to consider the order in which they place cars on trains to manage the forces acting on them. The agency noted recent derailments, including the one in Springfield, in which empty cars had been the first to come off the tracks.
