Two Person Freight Crews Are Safer
Legislation requiring a train crew of at least two individuals has been made law in four states and is being considered in many others. This is a national public safety issue.

At all hours, day and night, trains carrying cargo and hazardous materials roll through our communities.
It will take strong political effort to make a two-person crew minimum a nationwide reality. Here is a link to a petition where you can make your voice heard. whitehouse.gov/petition
