Common Accidents
In the U.S., approximately every 2 hours a train collides with a person or a vehicle.
Train Speed
Trains cannot stop quickly enough to avoid a collision. It takes the average freight train traveling at 55 mph more than a mile—the length of 18 football fields—to stop.
Rail Infrastructure
We’re constantly making improvements and capital investments to the existing rail infrastructure .
Vivamus A critical role of the North Carolina Railroad Company is its longstanding infrastructure improvement program, including strategic investments in safety improvements, bridges, sidings, double tracking and additional infrastructure to attract business.
