Blasting down bad track Doubleheader on the ND&W Railway (Maumee and Western)

PREX 1603 leading PREX 3054 blasts down the former Wabash Railroad's 5th District! Lol actually I condensed 6 minutes of the train crawling down the track! This is only the third time I've gotten a pair on one of their trains so I was pleased to see them. The line was most recently the Maumee and Western Railroad (MAW) before being purchased by Pioneer RailCorp. Maintenance was deferred for decades on this stretch of track. Pioneer has done a great job rehabbing the worst parts but some pockets like this still exist.

If they only run the train once a day or something on this short line that is not that much money or time lost. I don’t agree with it but I am sure this is how they look at it.

As a former CSX manager I am in total disbelief that a private RR company would allow their tracks to even fall in this condition where it puts train crews and cargo at 90% of derailing. When I was working for CSX it cost one million dollars just to replace one mile of track. Replacing tracks is part of any RR operating cost. As you can see in the podcast the tracks are so far out of alignment I dont see how this train does not derail. The FRA and OSHA should have shut this RR down if the tracks are in this condition. On the other hand if these are SPUR tracks and belong to a company then I would immediately cease deliveries until the tracks are replaced.

Instead of wasting money (sarcasm) repairing track that's in working condition, they save money until it needs fixed when the wheels fall off the rails. Sadly a lot of terminals and short lines budget this way.

all you have to do ia make the train executive personally liable for any derail on track he doesnt have taken care of. Make executives responsible for everything. They get obscene wages, they also get to carry the liability personally.

@jkeelsnc 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, put them on there and they will be scared and act like they empathize, etc. then they will go back to their boardroom and meet with other executives and the choice will still be “we cannot afford this at this time. Our profit targets for last quarter were not met”. As a business they won’t do anything as long as the train still rolls down the track and no one is dying.
