In all the years I have been alive (I am middle age) the LA Times has always been anti-rail and negative towards trains and railroads in general. This doesn't, in the least, surprise me. Nor am I worried about it either. In a side note, one major railroad is abandoning their Mainframe computer that has a backup system. They are going to a web based system that has no backup! Several computer companies have repeatedly warned this railroad that they need a backup system. This R.R. has responded that their research has shown that none is needed. I will leave it up to all of you out there to figure out what R.R. I am talking about.
