National Railway: Naphthalene-led volume
Among the 1,603 Transportation Equipment facilities in this database, National Railway reports the 874th-largest volume (1.0K lbs). Its reported volume is concentrated rather than spread: Naphthalene alone is 100% of the total. Carcinogen-classified chemicals make up 100% of the reported pounds, not just of the chemical count. Scale peers outside Illinois include Johnson Technology Inc and Lockheed Martin Space.
Concentrated means ≥60% of National Railway's pounds in one chemical - here Naphthalene at 100%. Not a toxicity score.
