Enhancing Railroad Safety

Safety is essential for railroads because heavy equipment moves at high speeds along the rails. Left unchecked, weeds and brush can reduce train traction during starts and stops, and can hide damaged equipment and other hazards. At crossings, dense foliage limits motorist line-of-sight.
