Salem, OH: Butech Bliss and "Glowing" NS Train Wheels

(Satellite, one of three locations in Salem. [ButechBliss-about])

This video is of the train that derailed in East Palestine, OH, in Feb 2023. A controlled burn of tank cars carrying vinyl chloride released toxic chemicals. They had to evacuate a lot of people before they started that burn. This video is from a security camera at Butech Bliss, 20 miles before the derailment.

Butech Bliss makes equipment for steel mills. This rolling mill is an example of a product that they make.

Brian James: The train in question I believe does not come through Canton. NS's primary route from Chicago to Pittsburgh is via Toledo, and Cleveland via the old New York Central main, southeast to Alliance on an old Pennsy (the C&P) main, and then east to Pittsburgh on the old Pennsy (P,Ft.W,&C) to Chicago main. Conrail sold off the line west of Crestline, and traffic between Crestline, and Alliance is down to just a few trains a day these days.

In addition to rolling mill equipment, they do extrusion press and forging equipment.
