Train Safety

FILE- In this Tuesday, May 28, 2013, file photo, a fire burns at the site of a CSX freight train derailment, in Rosedale, Md., where fire officials say the train crashed into a trash truck, causing an explosion that rattled homes at least a half-mile away and collapsed nearby buildings, setting them on fire. The nation’s railroads are safer than ever, despite recent high-profile accidents like this week’s fiery derailment in Maryland. Derailments and crossing accidents have steadily declined nationwide even as businesses have come to increasingly rely on trains to move their raw materials and products. (AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)
