A Matter of Life or Death
1,700 persons met death at grade
crossings in the United States last year.
5,000 more were injured.
The more trains that run over
these crossings, the more accidents
there are bound to be.
Yet Congress has before it a bill that
would compel the rail*
roads to run 600.000 ad*
ditional trains a year.
This bill, called the Train
Length Limit Bill, al*
ready has been passed
by the Senate and is now
in the House of Repre
sentatives. It limits the
length of freight trains to
70 cars.
Paraded as a **aa/®-
ty” measure, its real
purpose is to make more employ
ment for train crews.
To cloak its true purpose, it is repre*
seated that the “slack” between the cars
in long trains results in excessive “shock,”
particularly when starting or stopping
suddenly. It is claimed that this is an
unwarranted hazard to train crews.
What are the facts?
The Great Northern's accident reports
for last year show that not a single
trainman was killed or permanently
disabled in an accident of this kind.
Twenty-one sustained injuries which kept
them out of service for more than three

days, these accidents occurring on short
trains as well as long trains.
Accidents from other causes were more
numerous and much more serious. Six
members of freight crews were killed —3
on short trains and 3on long trains. Two
were permanently disabled—both on
trains of less than 70 cars.
Forty-four sustained in

32,000 additional trains. Acci*

More trains would have maant more
accidents to maintenance men and
workers in the railroad yards. The
22,000 additional trains would have
increased the possibility of disastrous
collisions involving passenger as well as
freight trains. Accidents at grade cross*

ratio as the increase in the number of
trains.
