I just think that there are 2 sides to this issue, and the gung ho 'over the top" pro railroad employee side of this debate is being a little close minded to reality. <br /> <br />I don't believe that concern for safety is the biggest issue here, I think job security is, and safety is being advanced as a specious argument. <br /> <br />if you read some of the insensitive vitriol written in other threads here about when cars bypass crossing gates and get hit (the "I wi***hose idiots would have lived, so I could kill them" type comments) one doesn't have to look too hard to see that the safety of the public at large is a fair weather friend here, at best. <br /> <br />As far as you accusing me of playing the 'know it all' here, well, that's funny considering if you bothered to read my earlier posts, I clearly stated that I didn't have ALL the answers. <br /> <br />Even funnier that after you make that accusation about me, you turn right around and speculate that I must have gotten fired. <br /> <br />nice to see I am not alone in the "know it all" dept. [}:)] <br /> <br />have a nice day! [8D]
