Remote Control Rail-Roading?

After reading through all these postings, I can't help but throw a can of kerosene on the fire. With management-employee relations like these, why do any of you need enemies? C'mon guys, the other side isn't the Taliban fer crying out loud. I don't work for a railroad, so I have no firsthand experience, but isn't there any middle ground here somewhere. One side claims that RC is the greatest thing since sliced bread and the other side is convinced that it is the work of the devil. What is the difference between the experience of the CN and the experiences so far on US Class 1's? Is it insufficient training, insufficient experience, old junk, unreliability or what? Here's a novel approach: why not work to solve the problem(s) instead of adopting such an adversarial and confrontational relationship. Wait, that's just naive. Silly idea, never mind. You guys just keep doing what you're doing and just keep watching that freight move from what is perceived as slow, unreliable rail "service" to trucks. Labor, just keep on with that good reactionary approach to technology and change. Management, just keep on worrying about counting your beans and don't worry that you're treating your employees like crap. And yep, one of you will have the last laugh all right. <br /> <br />
