## Caption

Three days after the Norfolk Southern train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, on Feb. 3, 2023, officials — with the EPA’s blessing — burned 116,000 gallons of vinyl chloride into the region.

Now, for the first time since the incident, new data reveals just how far those toxins spread.

Within minutes, a mushroom-like cloud of toxins billowed into the atmosphere and smothered the area.
