  1. To answer the question about how much toxic chemicals travel on the rails everyday,well figure in pounds,one railroad tanke car can hold 282,000 pounds of chemicals,how many tank cars a day,roughly your have a ball park figure guesstimate let's say 48 States 50,000 railcars a day ×'s 282,000 pounds a car,that's just astronomical and the problems are potentially greater in size of how many cars are ,if you have more than a 100 cars being pulled by on engine accident will happen with such risks,the longer the train caravan the greater the impact on axles and wheel bearings,this creates friction and that creates heat,without proper maintenance program such pressure points shorten the life expectancy of those critical parts,the safest practice is to reduce the train size to 30 car caravans and use two engines not one,

  2. I know what there not doing? There not adhering to the to preventative maintenance programs,you know much more stress is on trains at the end of the train car caravan,if there is 130 railcars the stress on the last 50 cars more than doubles that's a lot of wear and tare on trains.

  5. You should do some investigating,2 months ago Biden proposed an American-Africa economic summit to establish new business and commerce initiatives, and this week Jill Biden is on an African tour,how far will Hunter be behind ?does anyone smell another influence peddling deal being fostered by President Biden..

  6.  @brendapaxton7488  I'm not talking about cutting costs,I'm talking about the safety factors,I agree with your thoughts,but a sound preventative maintenance program will have safety built in,if you know the life expectancy of critical parts these parts can be replaced before they breakdown on those rail hours of hard use,its spending money to save money in the long run,if you wait until parts break it's too late and that has hazardous consequences for all.
