Two locomotives derailed on a Washington reservation six weeks after a chemical train derailed in Ohio, triggering major evacuations and new worries about rail safety.
May 01, 2023 at 5:37 pm PDT“I think my initial response was, are you serious?”Two locomotives derailed on the reservation, spilling three thousand gallons of diesel on the ground, not far from the waters where the Swinomish people have long fished.But a judge ruled Burlington Northern Santa Fe violated an easement with the tribe by running 100-car trains of crude oil across the reservation to a refinery when only 25-car trains were allowed.
Tunnel safety became a big concern after a runaway train carrying crude oil derailed in Quebec in 2013, killing 47 people. “There are longstanding serious rail safety issues that are systemic across the United States,” Krohn said. Krohn says locomotive crews already can’t monitor what’s happening on the cars behind them and is concerned about the trend of longer trains.
