I can't speak much for B.C., because I'm from Ontario and I don't understand the hills very much. But reducing the speed, in particular in towns—I know that's been lobbied a little bit through Quebec—by our crews can be done. I understand the burden CN may say that will put economically, but I live in Capreol, Ontario, which used to be a hub for railway traffic. It's a little bit reduced now, but there's a yard there. And I watched these multi-million dollar trains sit in the yard for an hour or two, maybe three hours, waiting for train crews, etc. So you can't say that the delay caused by the reduction in speed would be much of a problem if it's going to increase the safety when hazardous materials are being run or if it's decreasing the likelihood of a derailment.
CN would not purposely put a train over a defect in the rail at 60 miles an hour. They reduce speed to 30 or 25, and they have to deal with that until the problem is corrected. They put these trains that aren't inspected as much as they'd like you to think, especially during a night shift when these guys are working, by at the maximum speed that track allows at all times, without even considering that. And these trains, as I said, are sitting in the yards and there are delays there too, which nobody likes to mention.
