Ashland Rail Yard
The Norfolk Southern Ashland Rail Yard in Illinois has been a critical hub in the railroad industry for several decades. Operating for over 100 years, this rail yard employs a significant number of workers who face daily exposure to various hazardous substances. Common toxins at the site include diesel exhaust, asbestos, and chemical solvents, which are known to cause severe health issues such as respiratory problems, cancer, and neurological disorders. The rail yard handles a diverse array of materials, including industrial chemicals, petroleum products, and hazardous waste, further increasing the risk of toxic exposure. These materials, often transported in bulk, pose additional dangers to both workers and the surrounding community.
