heard on CBC TV there would be a television program highlighting CN’s high incidence of accidents. This will be aired Saturday 7pm eastern time
Is it on CBC’s cable channel or the regular free television? Global has been carrying a lot of coverage of the derailments in BC on the local news. The last year has been pretty bad. It seems like most of the accidents were on former BC Rail trackage and were caused by trains that were too long for the tracks (BC Rail only ran 88 car trains where CN is running 120 cars).
==Bring back BC Rail [soapbox] !!!==
What time will CSX’s show be on?
How about CSX’s abominable accident rate?
That, and using flatlander locomotives without dynamic brakes!
I’ll be anxious to hear what this show was all about–CN’s problems aren’t entirely confined to British Columbia.
Oh–and EmmaR, your avatar quacks me up!
