In the wake of the Ohio train derailment, Gov. Kathy Hochul is calling for change from the freight industry, Congress and federal regulators.

Hochul also called for requiring advance notice of hazard cars moving through states, as well as expanding access and funding to training and preparedness planning.

In its initial report on the cause of the Feb. 3 derailment, the National Transportation Safety Board said a wheel bearing overheated and the crew could not stop the train in time.
