Thread regarding Norfolk Southern Corp. layoffs

Here's an FYI for the people that want to believe that the railroads can do whatever they want. Get on YouTube or whatever site has it and look up congressional subcommittee hearings regarding PSR. The railroads are in fact being watched regarding PSR tactics. Not one member on that committee applauded PSR. There was also a hearing in response to shipper complaints due to PSR. The railroads are not in any way untouchable!! The videos are lengthy, but good to watch if you're interested.

If the public knew how unsafe these trains were you think they would be ok. Ill put it out there. He had a derailment locally. That village is now working on stopping trains from passing through. Once one does it they all will. So keep drinking the kool aid "yes man"

"Sounds like another id–t manager if he thinks the public wouldn't stop the railroad. What an id–t"

Ok genious, please tell us what changes have been made as well as how long public outrage lasts every time a train derails or blocks crossings for lengthy periods of time? My guess is about 60 seconds.

Sounds like another id–t manager if he thinks the public wouldn't stop the railroad. What an id–t

Hahahaha yea right. The RR is pretty much invisible to the public, unless one of their new PSR 15 mile long trains block crossings for 10 hours preventing grandma from getting to church on Sunday. Good luck with your public information campaign.

What we really need to do it get this stuff out to the American public. It's the tax payers money who funds the fra and others. If towns knew trains were unsafe and not being inspected right or crew were over used and tired. Do you think they would let they pass through? It's time we stand up and fight these useless greedy people. Railroaders unite!!!!!!!

This is truly a ROTTEN company.
