Rail industry history

For example, according to FRA 2000, a Federal Rail Administration (FRA) report, the period 1993-1999 was the safest in U.S. rail history [1]. More specifically, during this period, train-accident-related fatalities dropped by 87%, rail worker casualties fell by approximately 34%, and highway/rail grade crossing-related fatalities decreased by more than 35% [1]. The rail industry s 50+-billion investment in infrastructure and equipment over the preceding decade is considered to be an important factor in reducing rail accidents. [Pg.121]
