Since train derailments are in the spotlight right now, I would have thought that they would be taking extra precautions to ensure a derailment couldn’t happen.

Mayor Pete, why can’t you put hefty fines on the railways for all train derailments? In addition to fines, enforce proper cleanup and also have them pay a huge sum to the citizens that the derailments affect. If derailments drastically affected their bottom line, these companies would take action to prevent them.

They can’t fix the thousands of miles of rail in this country in two weeks, even if they were motivated to try

Something $$$ about the way the rail companies treat Mayor Pete, makes him only want to be nice to them.
