BNSF Railway Police: A law enforcement tradition from 1800s to modern day

BNSF Railway Police have a long tradition of excellence and tackle a broad range of challenges every day. They protect a jurisdiction 32,500 miles long and 100 feet wide, crisscrossing hundreds of local and state jurisdictions along the way. Railroad police are active in all forms of police duties. BNSF Police analyze statistical data to discover crime trends, use K-9 units and proactive uniformed patrol to combat trespassing and cargo thefts, and actively participate with other police agencies to investigate crimes committed on railroad property.

“I just like trains. I get to trainspot and railfan all day, and get paid for It too!”

[@thenekom]

Why don't you get some hirail police cars? That'd be kickass!

[@EastTexasRailfan]

Yeah it would be

Loved the video-ex police officer CA and S.F. Division Southern Pacific

[@ElevationStationProductions]

Rival issues... because you never know when Union Pacific will ransack an intermodal container.

Corporate espionage is very real. Probably a multi-billion dollar industry.

Bullshit

Great video.

[@cartman4885]

Very informative

[@olentangy74]

Hell, it seems like every cop wanna be in the country is getting in the power structure these days. Take a bunch of guys whose job is to chase hobos away from the train yard, and make them full fledged super cops with lots of shiny toys. What a bunch of hooey.

[@freakygeekygaming1433]

I like how they are "Recognized as the top of their field, for train police." Doesn't BNSF own pretty much all the trains in America now? That's a pretty narrow field...

[@tsitracommunications2884]

And would be terrorists as well.
