Norfolk Southern CEO Alan Shaw told CNBC's Jim Cramer that safety is a priority for the railroad and transportation company.
"I'm proud of the response in East Palestine, we're making promises, and we're keeping promises," Shaw said.
Norfolk Southern was down a little over 3% by Tuesday's close.
Findings from the National Transportation Safety Board investigation suggested that supervisors didn't address an engineer's concerns before the accident.
Norfolk Southern incurred $800 million in environmental and legal costs as a result of the derailment, according to the company's most recent earnings call.
