If safety is of the first importance why were the RR's allowed to layoff one third of the workforce and expect one third fewer employees to safely preform the same amount of work? Why were train lengths increased by one third? The FRA just announced a high percentage of Union Pacific's freight cars and locomotives defective. Not enough employees to safely repair the cars and engines. A lower operating ratio is of the first importance. Safety takes a second. Not by words but by actions.
