[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by futuremodal</i> <br /><br />I'd be more concerned with possible relationships between the railroads and the STB. It's possible that due to the unfortunate mergers of the 1990's the remaining Class I's have just gotten to big to get a handle on the day to day idiosyncrasies of operations. Isn't it more likely that UP's accident problems are a result of too few or still too green crews? To suggest that FRA officials would ingore safety concerns to placate allegedly cozy relationships between FRA and UP personnel is ludicrous on the surface. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />FM- <br /> <br />The STB has nothing to do with the subject of this thread which is allegations concerning the FRA's effectiveness as a safety regulator. It has NOTHING to do with STB regulations which are primarily financially related. Your bent towards changing reality in this area is well known, but we aren't discussing that here. If you wi***o discuss the STB feel free to start a new thread. <br /> <br />LC
