A youth baseball team in Stark Co. is back on its home field after it was stripped from them in 2022 due to damage seemingly forgotten by Norfolk Southern after a 19-car train derailment.
NORTH LAWRENCE, Ohio — As we remain committed to following through on the stories that matter most, we want to revisit the small town of North Lawrence, where damage was left behind on the Tuslaw baseball team's field and the fire station's lot after a 19-car Norfolk Southern train derailment in 2022.
The effort was made just in time for the Tuslaw baseball team to make its fall season debut. As coach James “Jim” Barkan explained, the team’s home field, which is owned by the North Lawrence Fire Station, is “where everybody makes you feel like you're friends and part of the family.” “After your initial reporting down here, I want to say it was within 24, 48 hours,” said Lt. Brandon Johnston, Public Information Officer for the North Lawrence Fire Station. “We received a phone from the representative of Norfolk Southern basically wanting to come to a conclusion.”
