Freight railroads must keep 2-person crews, according to new federal rule first proposed under Obama angielski

cross-posted from: lemm.ee/post/28549386

“As trains — many carrying hazardous material — have grown longer, crews should not be getting smaller,” said Eddie Hall, the president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen union. He praised the FRA for taking the step President Joe Biden promised. Hall said keeping two people in the cab of a locomotive is crucial now that railroads rely on longer trains that routinely stretch for miles.

Democrats are learning from East Palestine.

Rentlar,

Yep. Biden and administration has been improving stuff for both freight rail and passenger rail, possibly after letting them getting away with being too lax on safety. If he gets another term I really hope they can bring back Conrail which would bring back NS in good hands.
