The big railroads are laser focused on short term profits these days, to the detriment of long-term investment and public safety. A fix would probably require updating or replacing the Head of Train transceiver on every locomotive, and that’s not good for quarterly dividends.

The big railroads are laser focused on short term profits these days
every company is laser focused on short term profits, none of the executives care about long term sustainability because they get obscenely large severence packages when they get fired or if the company goes bankrupt from their stupidity
not caring about the big picture or what might happen in the future is why everything sucks
