Hmmm...deregulation facilitates these frequent failures. It's what Sir Mogg wants for Brexit Britain.

USA Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg says derailments happen all the time! No big deal! Don't bother him with this, he's on another vacation.

When The Train Companies Upgrade The Tracks & Maintain The Trains Will Be The Day Train Wrecks Will Be So Limited & Not The Weekly Event Anymore.

Lack of investment in infrastructure throughout the country for the past, oh I don't know 50 years or so has led to this type of situation taking place more and more often. Wait until the bridges start to collapse....
