But instead of spending money on infrastructure, the GOP wants to give it away. To those who already have way more than they need. Wrong priorities.
-
The thing is this was a NEW PROJECT possibly using existing infrastructure. Was it not tested properly? "Monday morning was the first time Amtrak trains used the new Point Defiance Bypass route. It was the culmination of a $181 million project that began in 2010." UNREAL!

OMG! Horrible accident. I just saw the pictures. And it's a new project--yes, makes me wonder, same question you're asking.

How is this comment about safety culture helpful at a time like this?
-
Because it wasn't helpful 'before'

“Come back when there is that accident, and try to justify not putting in those safety enhancements, or you can go back now and advocate for the money to do it, because this project was never needed and endangers our citizens,” [Mayor] Anderson said.

So sad and couldn't happen at a worse spot. No easy route out. Wetlands and land on either side. We need more major roads. Transportation nightmare...Only easy route to Tacoma and Seattle and major bases.

This seems a bit inflammatory given the investigative team from his own (previously) dept. hasn't even arrived yet to investigate a cause for the accident.
