[quote user="samfp1943"]<div class="article-section"><div class="article-sectiontext"><br>"DM&E has a long history of a cavalier attitude toward safety, and these numbers illustrate that safety remains a low priority for the railroad's management," Mayo Clinic spokesperson Lee Aase said. "The FRA's own safety data suggests that an unsafe railroad should not be rewarded with a massive taxpayer-backed subsidy."</div><div class="clear"></div></div>[/quote]<br> <br> Good point, Chances are that if DM&E is indifferent to maintaining safe standards on the physical plant already under it's control, what comfort can there be in expecting that their attitude is going to improve in respect to the taxpayer funded improvements?<br> <br> I'd be worried that somone might have intentions of milking the cow hard for 5 years and then let a worn and threadbare infastructure go into default, further saddling the taxpayers with 5 years of deferred maintenance as reward for their generousity<br>
