The one essential component of the proposal is to remove all crossing liability from the railroads and give it to the public sector. I might have misinterpreted the report, but I assume that it proposes to take ALL crossings out of the purview of the private railroads, and not just the newly signalized passive crossings.    If it is true that the railroads would jump at the chance to “opt out” of the grade crossing ownership and responsibility, then it seems to me that the only obstacle would be to change the liability so it can happen.   It does not seem to me that the report is asking anything of the railroads.  So I cannot see how they would be in any position to criticize it.
