“Lowering the standard,” as track inspector Tyler Pavich says here, is a betrayal of safety. Decreasing visual safety inspections erodes the trust we have placed upon them to keep trains on the track, prevent injuries and deaths, and avoid catastrophes. #ATI #railsafety

Big Rail wants to cut human safety inspectors and hand the job to robots. Why? Because it’s cheaper. Doesn’t matter that OVER HALF of derailments involve problems computers can’t even detect. This is corporate greed putting lives at risk.

We’re incredibly proud of Brothers Clawges and Sanders, courageous members of the BMWED. Moments like these remind us of the special breed MOW employees are, always looking out for one another and for the communities we move through every day — just doing what railroaders do.
