Hello Mr. Schmidt, <br /> First of all thank you for your polite and professional response. I have been called quite a few wonderful names since posting this concern. I wi***he administrator would not permit those to go through, it saddens me to hear the callousness and coldness coming through in the foul language. <br /> Your discounting of the ability of the railroads to share and contribute to the safety of grade crossing is of great concern. How can you honestly say that its not "there problem". You have a multi-million dollar company being protected and shielded by the government and in the mean time hundreds of people are dying going across crossings in which they don't have a chance to cross safely because of such factors as sight distance, percieved speed, etc.. All of which the railroad knows a lot about but doesn't want to effect the profit margin in a negative way so they choose to ignore. All of this being supported by the mentality of "OPERATION LIFESAVER". Not ALL accidents are the result of driver error/carelessness. Its just those so-called rare cases that could be prevented by some pro-active action on the railroads part. Thank you again for you polite response and I look forward to some further dialog on this issue. Something needs to be done and to say the railroad should have no part in it is truly sad. What was the average net profit last year of the railroads? <br />Thank you, <br />Mike Papula
