In my experience the railroad special agents usually go after the low hanging fruit. If there was a rail fan with a camera taking pictures of trains passing by or a lone hobo they're more likely challenge them, but on the other hand if it's a rough looking individual or a pack of teens they turn their heads and look the other way. I'm sure that there are exceptions to the rule but this is my experience over the years.

Fix your city, or we pull our services out.
Chill Will still nothing happens because cali “dose have enough prison space” so they reduce the crimes to misdemeanors or even drop them 👍🏽 great justice system
@Chill Will Doesn't help fix the problem. Because these thieves know that anything other than murder will not be prosecuted in LA according to the DA there that will continue to give these thieves the impression that they can get away with it so they'll keep on doing it because they have nothing to be afraid of. Federal officials won't do anything. Hell they won't do anything about beefing up the border patrol and allowing them to do what they ARE supposed to be able to do so do you really think the Feds at the top give a crap about crime like this to send in federal agents to patrol RR property. The railroads don't want to have to pay the money to hire all of this extra security to keep looters off of their property because hiring more of their own police or a subcontractor to provide the extra security is very expensive. That is why Union Pacific is pleading with LA's gov't to crack down on crime and do something about this. Until they replace the DA with one that will do his JOB thieves like this will have NO FEAR.

If there was too much debris/packages that got caught under the intermodal wells that could've easily derailed the cars or caused them to pick a switch if fouled. Intermodal well cars sit very low to the ground so anything that gets caught underneath them can lead to a derailment.

All you need is a slip, and squash. Trespassing has been a huge issue forever, trains can’t stop installs so they have to slow down, people have been trespassing in fails forever and many have payed the price
Looks like a turnout malfunctioned causing the derailment. Huge parts of the US railway system are in a sad state, causing low speeds and lots of derailments. The slower the speed, the better are the working conditions for thiefs. But the real problem is growing poverty. The less you have to lose, the less you care ....
Finaly someone who acknowledges the real problem ! Many people are just like '' ah well there should be more security on the containers '' or '' the police should just lock up all the thiefs '' and they ignore, that the people are not stealing from there for no reason - while it's not always the case, people steal stuff because they need it - either for themselves, or to make money in order to survive. If this was some other country ( for example some country in Europe ) I would be more dismissive, but considering this is the US, with growing unemployment, homelesness and poverty I'm not really supprised this sort of thing is happening.
The above statement applies to you as well. This was caused by thieves littering the railways, causing these collisions when the trains are in an already more unstable state, like a cougar circling a wounded animal that knows it can't escape.
Just make them single stacked as it'll be impossible to open up the intermodal containers and yes I get it'll mean more trains or longer trains but it'll mean the cargo will get there.
@Chill Will then they deserve a job on the railroad. I think california's got bigger problems if so many go getters with heavy duty tools are resorting to federal grand larceny
I feel this is a societal issue. I think this is the tip of the Iceberg in the US. This isn't about railroads, trespass or looting. I think the root cause of all this lays with WHY people feel the need to loot in the first place. Why are they risking so much to get a leg up? There are many countries in the world where railway freight isn't protected and also isn't broken into and stolen (Not nearly to this level). Perhaps if the US actually supported ALL of its people then this wouldn't happen. Yeah, it's great to be "free" but I feel individualistic freedom doesn't help a society move forwards, only the rich.
I have a solution! provide people with decent work, and a decent wage for that work, and give them education and healthcare for life, free at the point of use, and who knows, you may just remove the incentive for looting from masses being ground into poverty.
Just shows she's used to seeing worse. This doesn't even faze her. Doesn't surprise me, California has the worst homeless and theft problem in the nation.
They should put up electric fencing like in the Prisons,the first fence it'll be a regular fence with Warning Signs saying Do Not pass beyond these point and the next fence will be Electric with like 100 thousand bolts of electricity and if they steel want to go on,then that's on tjem.
Genius but who pays for it? Definitely not the railroad bc their not liable. Not the shippers their not liable. Broke Los Angeles? Naaaaa this will go in until there’s snipers by the tracks
And the packages, what was left after theft, just sat there and nobody bothered to get them or clean it up...until about yesterday per a video i just watched. Amazing how Amazon and UPS didn't care if people's packages got to them or not.
No given the amount of personal on the ground during a derailment that would defeat the purpose UNLESS it was an inside job targeting one SPECIFIC container with a lot of cocaine in it

Increase in security won't work if the guards are barred by law from using force. Cops react to crime, they aren't guards. They aren't going to sit around and wait for a crime to occur in front of them. If your guards have to wait for the cops to arrive to deal with a crime in progress, then you may as well cut the guards out of the equation and just wait for police. What ever damage occurs in that time, has to be eaten by the insurance company, which will trickle back in a round about way in the form of higher insurance costs. Eventually, if the losses are high enough over a long enough period, you'll start to see trains and shipping centers moving out of the area. This is why 3rd world countries never develop. Without law and order, you can't conduct business. In this globalized world, there is always a cheaper alternative. If this city won't protect their economy, these companies will simply move there operations elsewhere. One way or another, somebody has to pay for the damages. And it's not going to be the capitalists.
@@daniko4447 it’s a train yard. U want the train to go into the ocean it’s going so fast just to make sure some people don’t break in? Then all the packages are fuckd. Let’s practice risk management
How heavy is ur generator? Mayb the shipping company dropped it only reason ur generator would b touched would b for scrap metal which probably would’ve gotten a better yield than the average package so I doubt ur generator was touched
@@texaskidzuk that’s still 7-15 at the scrap yard (maybe higher If in cali gas prices being so high reflects on everything else) which is a nice find for an addict (take it from me I been there myself and to this day scrap metal still) If they touched ur generator and seen how heavy it was would’ve thrown it off the train immediately…and others if there were more
Is it required by law for Union Pacific to operate within the state? If not, I wonder at which point the cost of operation out-ways the benefits… I mean they could operate in Mexico, Oregon, or Portland and rail the product. Would be a good investment into building their own harbor.🤷♂️
Ok so these huge companies like Union Pacific can't hire 24/7 security for that area? put up some heavy duty barb wire high fences, then guard stations/towers. The loss from theft and damages and costs of derailments has to be a lot more than what it would cost for security. And, when trespassers and thieves are caught don't just give them a slap on the wrist. Give them good jail time.
UP could if they wanted to but they choose NOT to. In fact, they laid off a significant portion of their police force to satisfy the Wall Street devils.
It’s entering a train yard at a port? What u want it to go in the fuckn ocean? Then all the all the packages are fuckd. Let’s practice risk management . Lost packages = not the railroads problem + not the shippers problem = nobody’s fuckn problem That’s a simple algebraic equation to help u understand what’s going on here
How can we stop this though, realistically? Mandating heavy duty locks? or maybe security guard on every car, or heavy surveillance, all enforced or government funded for rail safety?
A rail car full of agents, with automatic firearms. Leave the tracks littered with thieving vermin. It's time to be realistic about who and what is so often a plaque upon decent society. We must stop making excuses for vermin.
Faster moving trains really does wonders. Thieves generally are too scared to even approach it. However, the increase in delivery in this pandemic times and long, slow freight trains are making this impossible.
@@watintarnation9801 All of which UP could solve by improving the rails to allow higher speeds and rehiring train crews so they can shorten the length of the trains.

They want to teach her CRT. She is already a great role model for most adults. Teaching her people out there racist then she start to see people's color as a difference.

In my experience the railroad special agents usually go after the low hanging fruit. If there was a rail fan with a camera taking pictures of trains passing by or a lone hobo they're more likely challenge them, but on the other hand if it's a rough looking individual or a pack of teens they turn their heads and look the other way. I'm sure that there are exceptions to the rule but this is my experience over the years.
"not enough evidence."
Lol. This is LA right?
We already know why nothing is done.
It's the City.
Hate to say it, despite profits, but customer trust should be a priority, UP needs to pull out of LA and make the city pay for the damages. Give them a ultimatum. Fix your city, or we pull our services out.
That LA route is one of the most profitable routes since it comes from the port. If UP pulls out, another company will move in within a heart beat.

What happens when the DA only charges criminals for serious crimes like murder but nothing else like theft.
Chill Will still nothing happens because cali “dose have enough prison space” so they reduce the crimes to misdemeanors or even drop them 👍🏽 great justice system
@Chill Will Doesn't help fix the problem. Because these thieves know that anything other than murder will not be prosecuted in LA according to the DA there that will continue to give these thieves the impression that they can get away with it so they'll keep on doing it because they have nothing to be afraid of. Federal officials won't do anything. Hell they won't do anything about beefing up the border patrol and allowing them to do what they ARE supposed to be able to do so do you really think the Feds at the top give a crap about crime like this to send in federal agents to patrol RR property. The railroads don't want to have to pay the money to hire all of this extra security to keep looters off of their property because hiring more of their own police or a subcontractor to provide the extra security is very expensive. That is why Union Pacific is pleading with LA's gov't to crack down on crime and do something about this. Until they replace the DA with one that will do his JOB thieves like this will have NO FEAR.

If there was too much debris/packages that got caught under the intermodal wells that could've easily derailed the cars or caused them to pick a switch if fouled. Intermodal well cars sit very low to the ground so anything that gets caught underneath them can lead to a derailment.
Doesn't help with key aspects of society prone to being thieves.

So I need a screw driver and pliers and there's no security. Good to know.....🙄 It can't be that difficult to stop these thieves. If they cared to.
All you need is a slip, and squash. Trespassing has been a huge issue forever, trains can’t stop installs so they have to slow down, people have been trespassing in fails forever and many have payed the price

Now the railway looks like the rest of LA, and most of US. A junkyard. Enjoy.
It’s only starting. We goin down da toilet. Got ur scuba gear?
Looks like a turnout malfunctioned causing the derailment.
Huge parts of the US railway system are in a sad state, causing low speeds and lots of derailments. The slower the speed, the better are the working conditions for thiefs.
But the real problem is growing poverty. The less you have to lose, the less you care ....
Finaly someone who acknowledges the real problem !
Many people are just like '' ah well there should be more security on the containers '' or '' the police should just lock up all the thiefs '' and they ignore, that the people are not stealing from there for no reason - while it's not always the case, people steal stuff because they need it - either for themselves, or to make money in order to survive. If this was some other country ( for example some country in Europe ) I would be more dismissive, but considering this is the US, with growing unemployment, homelesness and poverty I'm not really supprised this sort of thing is happening.
Absolutely. Debris did not do that. It was a malfunction or sabotage. I worked for CN rail as a maintenance of way employee.
The above statement applies to you as well.
This was caused by thieves littering the railways, causing these collisions when the trains are in an already more unstable state, like a cougar circling a wounded animal that knows it can't escape.
BIG JOKE...STAY CLASSY AMERICA!!!!
Only in america
Oh snap new pandemic alert train theft-virus
Just make them single stacked as it'll be impossible to open up the intermodal containers and yes I get it'll mean more trains or longer trains but it'll mean the cargo will get there.
This is the way
@Chill Will then they deserve a job on the railroad. I think california's got bigger problems if so many go getters with heavy duty tools are resorting to federal grand larceny
Horrible.. Instead of putting up security or fixing the issue.. Lets tell them how to make the problem worse.. smh
Fair enough
There is no incentive to fix the problem. They can just raise the customer's price to cover the losses and call it a day.

I feel this is a societal issue.
I think this is the tip of the Iceberg in the US. This isn't about railroads, trespass or looting. I think the root cause of all this lays with WHY people feel the need to loot in the first place. Why are they risking so much to get a leg up?
There are many countries in the world where railway freight isn't protected and also isn't broken into and stolen (Not nearly to this level).
Perhaps if the US actually supported ALL of its people then this wouldn't happen. Yeah, it's great to be "free" but I feel individualistic freedom doesn't help a society move forwards, only the rich.

So not only is nobody there to secure these trains from being openly robbed at will... nobody even bothers to clean up the tracks afterward?
And let the companies loose money closing down the rail?
This is typical for the USA. Bad tracks and poor maintenance of the railway carriages.
They should put up electric fencing like in the Prisons,the first fence it'll be a regular fence with Warning Signs saying Do Not pass beyond these point and the next fence will be Electric with like 100 thousand bolts of electricity and if they steel want to go on,then that's on tjem.
How about the simple thing known as prickly metal wire.
Genius but who pays for it? Definitely not the railroad bc their not liable. Not the shippers their not liable. Broke Los Angeles? Naaaaa this will go in until there’s snipers by the tracks

And the packages, what was left after theft, just sat there and nobody bothered to get them or clean it up...until about yesterday per a video i just watched. Amazing how Amazon and UPS didn't care if people's packages got to them or not.
They weren't viable after being thrown in the ground and subjected to the weather. Amazon will reship. UPS will reship what was insured
The train was derailed so it could be looted.
No given the amount of personal on the ground during a derailment that would defeat the purpose UNLESS it was an inside job targeting one SPECIFIC container with a lot of cocaine in it

LA has turned into a 3rd world country. So sad
I mean if only we focused on solving the poverty that characterizes developing nations.
Increase in security won't work if the guards are barred by law from using force. Cops react to crime, they aren't guards. They aren't going to sit around and wait for a crime to occur in front of them. If your guards have to wait for the cops to arrive to deal with a crime in progress, then you may as well cut the guards out of the equation and just wait for police. What ever damage occurs in that time, has to be eaten by the insurance company, which will trickle back in a round about way in the form of higher insurance costs. Eventually, if the losses are high enough over a long enough period, you'll start to see trains and shipping centers moving out of the area.
This is why 3rd world countries never develop. Without law and order, you can't conduct business. In this globalized world, there is always a cheaper alternative. If this city won't protect their economy, these companies will simply move there operations elsewhere.
One way or another, somebody has to pay for the damages. And it's not going to be the capitalists.
They need to upgrade their right-of-way fencing, obviously
and upgrade the speed limit

Is it required by law for Union Pacific to operate within the state? If not, I wonder at which point the cost of operation out-ways the benefits… I mean they could operate in Mexico, Oregon, or Portland and rail the product. Would be a good investment into building their own harbor.🤷♂️
Ok so these huge companies like Union Pacific can't hire 24/7 security for that area? put up some heavy duty barb wire high fences, then guard stations/towers. The loss from theft and damages and costs of derailments has to be a lot more than what it would cost for security. And, when trespassers and thieves are caught don't just give them a slap on the wrist. Give them good jail time.
UP could if they wanted to but they choose NOT to. In fact, they laid off a significant portion of their police force to satisfy the Wall Street devils.

How can we stop this though, realistically? Mandating heavy duty locks? or maybe security guard on every car, or heavy surveillance, all enforced or government funded for rail safety?
