Don’t they have daily de-railings? I remember some YouTube video talking about derailings with hazardous materials.

- VWWHFSfQ 1y agoI don't know. We're talking about 10,000 trains operating over 150,000 miles of track. A few de-railings per day in train yards is probably within an acceptable error rate. But, I don't know.
- achierius 1y agoMost of those are minor incidents in rail-yards, the equivalent of bumping someone's car in the parking lot. From what I know the equivalent stat for the EU is one per two days, so better but still in the same ballpark.
