Sometimes you have to wonder about the RAH RAH guys? Do they put any thought into composition of their stories?
FTA:[snipped]"...The international delegations also want to know about new safety technology freight railways have developed. Freight rail’s safety record has improved, with the accident rate down by 42 percent since 2000. Still, accidents do happen.

The first question seems to show some interest from the International Delegates, but then the second part seems to be a 'backhanded cuff' to a 'agenda'?
It might have been somewhat, more menaingful, IF they had not used a 14 year old 'file photo' from an on-line resource for pictures of the UPRR's 2001 Olympic Torch Train.[ IT was a beautiful train.]
BUT, Come-ON ! Some magazine writer was just picking the low-hanging fruit.
