Railways are FRA regulated. The state has no say in it and they explicitly stated they are exempt from a lot of environmental oversight because it's federal territory.
Also there have been 3 railway incidents in south Jersey the past 5 years. They just don't reach the level of attention Ohio did. Also that "training" is Ops and Awareness. It's a joke lol. All HAZMAT ER is done by a CEHA agency or the DEP for the most part (EPA will give assistance when requested.)
