There are grave problems with US approach to safety on railways--emphasis on heavier vehicles to survive crashes, instead of investing in track and signal modernization to prevent them! A change in approach is necessary #TrainTwitterhttps://twitter.com/FoxNews/status/960175162715967489 …
Shared freight and pax infra seems to operate w/o incident in Japan on the regular, not sure why this is so much harder for us

They are operating FAR less ton/miles of freight and the bulk of shared mileage is very limited, but yes, we should be striving for those numbers.

The bulk of freight track in Japan is shared with passenger service, most notably on the Tokaido and Sanyo main lines, two of the busiest in the country for passengers *and* freight. Low overall share but it amounts to an awful lot of freight traffic in practice

I wish I could pay money to do a work study with JR Freight. Only guys I got to work with was Indian Railways and they have a bit of a different culture.
