Tacoma Accident Shows Dangers of Remote Control Locomotives

Employees' Concerns Conveyed in Teamsters' Report

WASHINGTON, Despite resolutions opposing the use
of remote control engines in other parts of the state, Tacoma, Washington
experienced a near-fatal rail accident November 13 when a remote controlled
Union Pacific locomotive smashed into an inbound freight container train. "We know that many of our rail members observe remote control
rail engines that are kept in unsecured locations on a daily basis and that
hazardous materials travel through their rail yards on most days."
Since 2003, eighteen labor federations have passed resolutions opposing
remote control locomotive operations across the country, as have various state
and county labor bodies.org
