Wes,
Unless your track crews around there do better than here I would be worried abut that too. We have a lot of derailments at the Dunsmuir Curve and most of them are caused by two things. The train going to fast and a rail being loose. I don't think they even have a maintenance crew here any more like they used to that was responsible for so many miles of track. Now they wait until a train derails and send out an investigation team to tell them that a rail was loose or that a tie had rotted so much the spike could no longer hold.
