FRIDLEY, Minn. The U.S. Department of Transportation has signed off on an
order that requires trains to slow down in high urban areas. On Friday,
the Federal Railroad Administration issued the emergency order that trains
carrying large quantities of crude oil or ethanol travel no faster than 40
mph through highly populated areas.
.
The move to improve rail safety comes after two trains carrying crude oil
from the fields in North Dakota derailed this year, one in West Virginia,
the other in Illinois. Both burst into flames.
.
"The railroads do a great job with safety. This isn't about them not being
good stewards and not being safe. It's about how many more trains are
actually travelling on these tracks now," said Anoka County Emergency
Management Director Terry Stolzman, who plans for such disasters.
.
He says reducing speed limits should reduce the risk of derailments, and
that is a good thing. But he is also concerned that traffic could wait
longer at railroad crossings, making it tougher for emergency vehicles to
respond quickly.
